Just like in Pro Basketball, Football, and lately tennis, the players brought the time clocks on themselves by slow play. So let it be for golf!

Just this past weekend, a female caddy for one of the pros of a ladies tour event needed to use a bathroom quick. She hopped into a cart for a quick trip to the port-o-potty. When she got back, her pro got assessed a 2-shot penalty. Neither one was allowed to use a cart during the event. True story!

Quote:
Every player in the field is informed of the transportation policy – a player “must not ride on any form of transportation during a stipulated round unless authorized” – which is in effect all season. If the NCAA didn't penalize her it would hav been unfair to the rest of the field. A governing body cannot decide which rules they are going to enforce and which they are not. Another player in the group, Kelly Nielsen of Kent State, also was slapped with a two-shot penalty for the same infraction, but her score of 81 was dropped in the play-five, count-four format.

Exactly! Watching these guys have a two minute conversation about every shot is agonizing. The "Match" was awful TV, but at least they didn't have a conference over every shot, as there were no caddies.

Range finders should be banned for everyone. No one except pros need exact yardage. All the do is slow down play

And saves time - from a shot hit with the wrong club or having to search for a sprinkler head with the yardage.

Sorry, but I believe that just the opposite is true. They help to speed up play.
