That is incorrect.
People do it for a number of reasons. Husband and wives (boyfriends/girlfriends) do it hundreds of times a day, so they get to play alone, without being forced to "pair up".
People do it to "block a spot", when they're not sure which or how many of their friends are available to play on a specific day.
People do it, so they can improve their chances of getting a preferred Tee Time, and their friends aren't Enhanced Members, as I am.
The reasons to abuse the Tee Time system, are as varied as the number of golf courses we have.
I get that folks that aren't really golfers or have much familiarity with the system might not understand how and why the abuse occurs, but it does and it's not fair to other folks who use the system, honestly.
