Apparently it is more important to keep their bookkeeping straight than to allow a single to play through. Anyone else have this happen to them?
The starter delayed everyone waiting for a couple of no-shows to come to the course. Naturally everyone is backed up. Then on the sixth hole the ambassador starts wagging his finger and pointing at his watch. At the published time of 90 minutes to play the course we were ten minutes ahead at that point. I thought about telling him that, but there was no point. Some folks need their power trip. Let ‘em have it.
