Revised "Speed-Up-Play" Rule for "Touring Amateurs"

We continue to have a problem with slow play on full length golf courses. It's usually the fault of just one or two foursomes. Unfortunately, the slow play of a single group has a very negative impact upon all of the groups that follow it.

As a result, and effective with the July 2009 T/A event, we have further revised the rules for handling this problem.

If your group falls more than one and up to two or more full holes behind the group ahead of it, the course marshals have been directed by us to insist that your group pick up upon completion of your current hole, and immediately proceed to the next tee closest to the group ahead of you.

In general, you will be credited with a bogey on any hole(s) not played. Failure to courteously abide by the marshals' instruction will result in an even higher score for the hole(s) not played.

Failure to comply in any way with the marshals' instruction will result in the disqualification of your group.

Again, you are to play out the hole you are on upon notification by the marshal of unacceptably slow play then skip one (or more if necessary) hole(s).

No member of your team receives any credit for his or her drive on holes that are skipped. Please leave your score blank for any hole(s) skipped because of this rule.

And please remember, your primary responsibility is to keep up with the group ahead of you. Do not worry about the group behind you.
