Every golfer has been affected by slow play and I’d suggest the vast majority have been in a position where they’ve been held up by a group or groups playing in a medal or stableford competition.
This is a frustrating situation to find yourself in. Etiquette dictates everyone should be shown the same respect on the golf course (avoid these etiquette mistakes) and the game’s overarching principles of honesty, integrity and consideration should always be in effect, but the aforementioned scenario is often confusingly immune to such ideals.
