Playing a two ball we were told that we would be sharing the tee with another pair, which isn’t ideal with the current situation with COVID, however we accepted this. The starter kept saying it was golf now, not them who decide that and there was no other tee off time, but if we booked directly with the club he could have done something for us. So fair play, we got ready and was on the way to the first tee a couple of minutes early. As we walked towards the first tee, the other pair tee’d off and started walking up the first fairway.
The starter immediately came out and started shouting that we should have tee’d off with them. At which point I told him there is still a couple of mins before our tee time, but we’ll play right in behind them. He then went on ranting at us that that’s not the point, we should be going round with them.
I had the feeling that because we booked through golf now we were treated differently with the comments from him and the manner which he spoken to us.
Not an exceptional course, but it’s not bad. I would have thought they would have been a bit more welcoming to visitors and disappointed in Golf Now for cramming guys in under the current conditions. Whether that’s Lochgelly GC’s fault or golf now, it’s pretty poor.
