I'm pretty sure BOTH players in the slow group get the penalty.

My issue is that slow play by the pros encourages and justifies "The Double-Bogey Waltz" by weekend players.

Indeed. I call it the "Tiger Effect". Any weekend after he's won a tournament, golf courses are filled with slow, Top-Flite-losing hacks thinking they're Tiger Woods.

I watch amateurs in front of me walk 180 yards to inspect the green and walk back before they hit their shot......ridiculous.
