It is not THEIR fault.

This is not true on the championship courses, they have the authority to ask you to move faster. I am not positive about the executives. Like every job, some are better at it than others.
Yesterday was a perfect example of why it gets frustrating. We played Evans Prairie, Killdeer to Egret (Osprey closed). On the front nine we were 10 plus minutes over a
very forgiving 'time par'
As we turned to Egret, the ambassador stopped by on the first hole asking what the heck happened on the front nine. I was surprised by the response of someone in the group, stating that the ambassador did not do his job.
The ambassador said, I am sorry about that, I have already spoken to a group 2 ahead of you and will check back on them. I ask that you keep up when they speed up.
I wanted to hug him.
