I read a book a few years back about a golf writer who moved to St Andrews. He bought a flat in one of those apartment buildings that line the left hand side of the 18th fairway. They play golf year round there and there was one resident who played every day for over 365 days.
He went down to a little coffee shop one morning. It was snowing and the temperature was in the teens. Some asked, "I wonder what hole, so and so is on". Not, "I wonder if he's playing in this". There was no question about that. He didn't play only if the snow got more then 6" deep.
And there are no golf carts there.
