Apparently it's better to foster fights among the golfers. One group consistently has picnics on the green, while the group behind is forced to stand around and watch the grass grow. This, left unmanaged, leads to hostility. Seems pretty common sense that the person hired to monitor the course has the authority to build a fire under a slow group without fear of reprisal.
