Default GOLF DRESS CODE

Just spent 2 weeks at tv (visiting my own home) Golfed 3 times day and of course the afternoons were hot, My friend and I went to Sand Hill and she was told she needed to go home to change her shirt to a collared shirt. She has on a plain pale yellow shirt (crew neck) and short sleeves and was told it was a TEE SHIRT. Went home to change her shirt and when we got back another lady was sitting in a golf cart with her husband and the starter said nothing to her...she was wearing the same style shirt only in white, another couple pulled up again another plain white shirt, and they were allowed to golf with these shirts. My friend was upset. We dont mind rules but they should be the same for everyone, ..the starter;s name was Lee Zenkowski and to be perfectly honest..his problem was that he was not MAN ENOUGH to go over to another man and tell him "take your wife home to change her shirt"..but two women sitting in a golf car..no problem!
We asked to speak to his supervisor who was called, and got to the course while we were on hole #3..his theory was that the starter determined it to be a tee shirt and so be it..
We were so upset that we left "have a nice day in the Villages"....Another gentlemen told me same thing happened to his wife and she put on a jacket that was in their cart and it was 90 degrees.
Point is rules should be the same for everyone and although most of our starters and Ambassadors are really wonderful friendly and capable people..there is one bad apple in the bunch and his supervisor did nothing to remedy the situation...too bad...
So ladies. if you run into this guy it would be best to wear a collared shirt in case he determnes any other shirt to be a TEE SHIRT...
