The frustrations of golf

Hopefully this has never happened to you, but I can certainly feel this golfer’s pain…. - tj

It was a sunny morning, a little before 8:00am, on the first hole of a busy course.  I was beginning my pre-shot routine, visualizing my upcoming shot, when a piercing voice came over the club house loud speaker, "Would the gentleman on the woman's tee back up to the men's tee please!" 

I could feel every eye on the course looking at me.  I was still deep in my routine, seemingly impervious to the interruption.  

Again the announcement, "Would the man on the woman's tee kindly back up to the men's tee!" 

I simply ignored the guy, trying to keep my concentration, when once more, the man yelled, "Would the man on the woman's tee back up to the men's tee, please!" 

I finally stopped, turned, cupped my hands and shouted back . . .  "Would the #@*#hole with the microphone kindly keep quiet and let me play my second shot!"
