Championship golf on Christmas

[rustyp]

Was there the tradition of free golf on the championship courses today ?

This was never a good idea. How about no golf in Christmas Day and everyone spend time with the family.

Some family's golf together....

I assume the answer is "yes"

Wow. The original, simple question was never answered.

You mean the day of destruction aka golf course apocalypse

So to be curious what may be the average number of ball marks, and pitch marks on the greens will be and unfilled divots on the tee boxes will be? Ohh. I forgot the bunker craters as well!

Only because we have way too many entitled golfers who feel proper golf etiquette is beneath them.


The first time I ever went to Disney World in LA, back in 1972, I was amazed at how clean and spotless it was. I would have been embarrassed to drop a wrapper on anything else on their spotless streets.

It's the same at Augusta National or even my private country club at home. Management sets the tone. Who would think twice about dropping a cigar butt in an alley behind a 24 Hour Convenience store?

If a bunker is impeccably raked when Golfer #1 hits his ball into it, the odds are ... he'll be embarrassed not to re-rake it.

When attention by the Maintenance crews improves, golfer's etiquette improves. It's a 2 way street.

And you are adding to that list.
No TV Xmas golf, free or otherwise. There, that was simple!
