As far as the WM Open is concerned, I love it all! The energy levels are awesome and who really cares if they are not all true golf fans, it’s bringing people out to the course to watch. I’m not saying every tournament should be like this, far from it, but the stuffiness and elitism from golf and golf fans is annoying as hell.
When me and the guys play we are drinking beer, we are smoking cigars (among other things), we are playing music and having a blast. We are also mindful of other groups as to not be too loud around them, we fix out divots, we repair ball marks on the green, and keep the pace of play. I shouldn’t have to be funeral quiet to be out there and I say **** you to the people who disagree, lol.
