Please re-read Steamdogman's post. Every course has a time par. As long as a group is on time or nearly so, the ambassadors do not consider them slow. The presence of open hole(s) in front of them is not evidence they are behind time.
This time of year there are gaps built into the schedule to allow watering of the overseed during the day. This will create situations where there is space between groups that looks suspicious, but is not.
Nope, I'm not an ambassador. But I appreciate the work they do on the courses. Categorizing them as "lazy" or "out for a paid afternoon ride" is grossly unfair.
They are called ambassadors, not marshals for a reason.
