Playing short-handed:: What do you think about the Seton Hall sixth man incident from the other night? Turns out Seton Hall's basketball team finished regulation play of its eventual overtime victory over Georgetown by using six players. And nobody noticed! Isn't this what scorekeepers are supposed to do?

I think a big part of the problem is greedy golf pros setting tee times a lot closer than they used to be. The Matt Zeh article you linked to mentions as much. e.g. tee times used to be spread out 10 minutes or more, thus allowing ample time for the group ahead to play up the fairway far enough so that the group behind isn't breathing down their necks all afternoon. Now, a 7 minute spread (or less) seems common. This is the equivalent of rush hour traffic on the course.
