Second chance was at the bathroom but no you couldn't fill a cup due to lack of pressure. Third chance at last water station didn't have any water period!!! Sorry but this is unacceptable!! Remember the good old days when the ambassadors drove up and asked if you wanted some cold water; they say they can't do it safely any more when you ask. Just another example of poor golf management; or as they like to say blame it on the weather!!
Bottled water not cheap anymore, beside’s not requirement to furnish bottled water anyway.

I never rely on someone else to provide beverages for me. Beside’s with all horror stories related to water coolers won’t catch me drinking from one.
