Situation arose at random dubs last night.
Longtime area golfer gets paired with a partier, who quickly gets hammered* along with the other team on the card. He's pissed the entire round, and even though he's tied for last cash, leaves his partner, who is forced to play off without him.
*Hammered - The other card were both 950+ rated local pros. Tied for first. Both missed a 20' putt on the first hole of the playoff. Badly.
The question:
Is the old guy overreacting, or should the young buck have cut back some since they were playing for money?
Caveat:
Had they finished 2 strokes better, they would have taken 1st place outright.
