Do you ever watch golf on TV? Have you ever seen anyone, fit a ball mark on a Green? Did you ever see a Caddy filling a divot? Have you ever seen what a golf course looks like, the day after a PGA Tournament is done ... & then a week later, when all is back to pristine?
Management is responsible for the condition of the courses, player abuse is minor contributor.

I don't feel player abuse is a minor contributor. Witnessing what I see when I play on our executives it's the laziness or entitlement that's the major problem. I don't believe the cameras are going to focus on what the caddy's or course staff are doing during a tournament. They focus on the players. I personally can't see golf staff following behind players like their mothers picking up after them like they were children. I have seen ambassadors come by and pick up broken tees and fill divots on the tee boxes
I don't blame the course workers. They only go out and do what they're told. Overall I feel the course management folks and the golfers need to do better.
