To be fair, I have seen some women playing from the gold tees who would do much better from the forward/green tees.

I would hope it's less of a problem on the championship courses where golfers tend to be more experienced. The "after 5" crowd may be the exception.
I live on Glenview and unfortunately this happens all the time, my husband calls it "playing their ego's". These are usually the guys who get up on the tee, do all their exercises to loosen up, swing the club back and forth and then blow the shot ................. But, sometimes in the evening, the young pros from the various championship courses will come through and they are a pleasure to watch.
