When you have big money involved and you are following the rules on the honor system greed rears it ugly head. Golf has alway claimed to be gentleman's game maybe when it was first played by royals, but once money got involved the gentle game when out the window. IMO golf not like other pro sports you don't have official watching they're every stroke. Yes most are professional and honor the rules, but some lack talent and the money clouds they're vision.
I also hate when ball lying in divots, but part of the game just like when tennis shot hit the line and skips or hit hump in the court and bounces 3 foot higher than you expect. It's part of the game that has to be dealt with.
