Many golfers in TV only play the executive courses and were not golfers in their former lives. They have no idea of the rules of etiquette. Don't shoot them a look, ask them politely not to talk while you are taking a shot. Educate them nicely about walking on your line and casting a shadow on your shot. You can always just say "please guys...." It's golf, not curing cancer. If you can't stand it, play the championship courses where in general there is more golf knowledge.
