I’m going to a Senior PGA event this weekend. I’ve never been to a live event, and don’t know if I should hang out at one hole all day or walk around. And if I walk around, I wonder what protocol is to stay out of players’ way and in general not be rude (while getting optimal views).
and why

Nick isn’t playing the PGA Tour anymore, but I watched him play the Senior PGA today. This guy is phenomenal. Just pure class. Even after a bad swing on a Par-3, he compliments his playing partners’ shots.
He thanks marshals and volunteers, doesn’t throw clubs, doesn’t throw foul-mouthed fits, doesn’t drag sand out of a bunker onto the tree, doesn’t walk off the green when his playing partner is putting. . . never spits into a hole!
There are so many no etiquette jerks like Tiger, Sergio, Sabbatini, Wie. Even a no-namer like Arron Oberholser walks off the green when his playing partner has yet to hole out (playing with Vijay at Wachovia). More PGA pros should start acting like professionals and learn from Nick Price.
Does anyone know of a tour pro today with more class and better etiquette than Nick? I don’t.
Typo: I meant to write, “doesn’t drag sand from the bunker onto the green”.
does senior mean like senior PGA–gotta be good at golf to use?
or senior like–for old men?
