CONSIDERATION FOR OTHER PLAYERS

USGA states:

• Players should always show consideration for other players on the course and should not disturb by moving, talking or making unnecessary noise during a shot.
• Players should ensure that any electronic device taken onto the course does not distract other players. Please set your cell phones to vibrate or better yet turn them off.
• On the teeing ground, a player should not tee her ball until it is her turn to play.
• Players should not stand close to or directly behind the ball or directly behind the hole when a player is about to play.
• On the putting green, players should not stand on another player's line of putt or, when she is making a stroke, cast a shadow over his line of putt.
• Players should remain on or close to the putting green until all the players in the group have holed out.
