It refers to the fact that at this time of year, there is little light after the starter leaves to play, so it is mostly a summer thing, but the answer still applies now.

"All residents are welcome to start on the 1st tee after 7:00, we do have roaming Ambassadors that check ID's for those that start after 7:00. We do not encourage or want folks to start in the middle of the course."

But if that's also the policy for the champs you made my day.
Pretty much the same for the champs, with one significant difference...there are ambassadors on the champs right up to dusk and they will stop and give you a 'ticket' so you can pay your green fees the following day.
