When a socialite is accepted into a country club, pays an uncomfortable amount for membership, meal tickets, green fees and tournament fees for in club events, and is outed for cheating while playing on a Saturday morning round for the smallest of bets... That socialite might have a rough time finding anyone to play golf with at that club again.

I don’t think someone winning a game they’re not supposed is adequate proof of cheating. It’s not like chess tournaments don’t take a lot of precautions against cheating either.

Makes me glad I quit keeping score 20 or 30 years ago. I enjoy the game thoroughly but why be held back ir frustrated by keeping score?

Just swing it and watch the beauty of a ball in flight! I don’t keep score on the driving range either. All golf really means to me is a movable driving range... like I said I thoroughly enjoy smacking balls but ain’t going to get all worked up over a score...
