Golf has long been known as a gentlemens sport, even more so than cricket.
Golfers who cant follow the rules will find themselves struggling to find people to play with.
If thats true, what does a lack ofmannerscreate?
One man found out when what had seemed like a friendly game of golf turned drastically sour.
Hisretireepartner was easily getting the better of him when their idyllic game was suddenly turned on its head.
OP reports that, at this point, people were staring and phones were coming out.
Thats when an employee at the course playing a round walked over to find out what was up.
OP showed him his receipt by way of explanation, then walked off to his ball.
He added that he could still see the couple ranting at the employee from the green.
In anenvironmentwhere etiquette reigns supreme, they most definitely crossed the line.
On the surface, they may come across as domineering, demanding, or even abusive.
However, with an astute approach andassertivecommunication, you may turnaggressionintocooperation, and coercion into respect.
Nigoes on to say that the reasons for unwarranted confrontational and hostile behavior are many and often complex.
These types of people arent just [jerks] on the course, they are [jerks] everywhere.
Thats their role in life.
So feel sorry for them that that is who they were destined to be every day.
Thats enough to make me at peace and move on from the situation.
