Uhhh no...there was no one ahead of us...until they jumped a hole ahead of us and played #2, my point is, they should have skipped #2 and moved to #3 and all would have worked out just swell. Our pace of play was fine, unlike theirs - which must have been 20 minutes plus on the 3rd hole (not quite Super-Ready golf). Regardless, was looking for comments on playing through (jumping ahead a single hole) and then holding back the group you just passed? When you play through, simple courtesy says, you should demonstrate an awareness for those behind you. This happened to us on De La Vista a few weeks back as well, where a single golfer jumped ahead of us on #7, as we were playing #6. He proceded to play several balls all the way to the green - of course holding us up on the #7 tee for over 10 minutes. C'mon folks get some golf courtesy, learn golf etiquette. Fortunately running into these knuckleheads on the courses seems to be the exception.
