We caught up to them waiting on the next tee and I mentioned, good-naturedly, that if an ambassador saw him doing that it would be pointed out that such an act is verboten in TV. He was honestly surprised; apparently he was not a permanent Villager and honestly didn’t know that such was not allowed. For the rest of the round, at least, he kept his pull cart well off to the side of the greens.

But, of course, there are those who think that doing things like fixing ball marks or raking traps is somehow beneath them…
Seems like a lot of this is common sense. Would they want to wait while group ahead of them stands on green to write down their scores?
