One of the Super's is running a club which holds Senior PGA tourney's.
Quality guy.
On a daily basis, the Superintendent sets up a golf course. Only he knows where he needs a hole location to be, given past locations and green impacts. That is NEVER the Professional's job (unless the Super is a dope).

For a "club tournament", the pro is likely to participate in set up.

For ALL PGA Tournaments, the PGA course supervisor sets up the course, with the Superintendents assistance.

The OP was 100% correct.
