That is the courteous thing to do, however in TV, letting players "through" is a no-no. I guess the ambassadors get confused as which groups are which...definitely not allowed on the championship course, maybe the executive courses don't mind it. I don't think they allow it.
If you are on the "time-par" your fine. You don't need to do anything. If you've fallen behind the time-par and you are holding up play, you need to pick up the pace until you are caught up on the clock.
Some people insist that if you have a hole open in front of you and you are holding up the group behind you are "behind" but that is not the standard in TV. It's the "time-par" printed on every scorecard that tells you how many minutes since your tee time , per hole, what your time schedule is. Those guys behind you getting impatient can just cool their jets if you are on time as dictated on the card.
