GJ,
why is it a terrible analogy?
Because no golfer is going to die from my talking.
I believe the tour professional should be afforded the same courtesy that all golfers are (your 4ball excepted but then again it is your choice and not forced on you)
The tour professional should be afforded the same courtesy that all golfers are. That courtesy emanates from their fellow competitors.
When you are watching TV do you believe that the players on the tele can actually hear you??? I can not believe you do not understand the difference between being there in person and watching TV Roll Eyes
Are you interested in a serious discussion, or do you just want to spew BS.
GJ, I get the impression that because some professionals earn a lot of money that gives you the right to abuse them. I don't agree and neither does golfing etiquette.
Professional golf tournaments are a form of entertainment, just like all other professional sports. Golfing etiquette originates from the treatment of fellow competitors, not from the entertainment industry. I am not entertained by watching tediously slow play. Why should I put up with it. If I went to the professional theater, and the actors stumbled over their lines, and required constant prompting, should I put up with it?
