My colleague Michael Weston recently wrote an article highlighting an unpleasant experience one of our readers had endured as a single golfer. He encountered an “obnoxious” three-ball during a holiday round that ruined his day and made him feel hugely unwelcome as a visiting golfer.
That was a tough story to read, and I was very much on the side of the singleton as I read it. Of course, lone golfers should be allowed out on the course. Perhaps, as in this case, they might be away somewhere with no playing partners and want to experience a new course.
