You make very good points. My understanding is the last US hosted Ryder Cup cost $185.00 per ticket. (Did not include food and beverages). So, for fun lets say it's 100 bucks for food and beverage. Then the increase would be $185 up to $650. ... or a 351% increase. ... If you just look at inflation the cost should be around $230. Personally, I've never been to a Ryder Cup. So, I can't speak to the experience. -

Especially with a muni course, I wouldn't expect too much. At least in my limited experience, it was up to my men's association leadership to determine things like GUR or LCP. Old Kittyhawk was a wild and wooly place. There was one year that we were allowed to rake and place in the bunkers. As much to avoid damaging our clubs on the rocks as much as anything else. In the few cases where GUR wasn't already marked by the course, the Association guys would mark it themselves before one of our events. The course never gave them any grief over that. It does seem a bit odd that a club manager would make a suggestion as he did in @reidsou's case. They generally let our guys run their own show. -

Unless you go on Sunday, you're paying $750 to watch 4 groups of golfers (eight total) play on average about 16 holes of golf. The "four at a time" thing is important, though, because how 50,000 people (they'll get way more than that) can even watch four matches… it just doesn't happen that way. So unless you get to a hole you think is pivotal early, and sit there all day, you might see… ten golf shots from a decent vantage point all day? And the lines for food and drink… you think those will be short? It's a huge cost. Ridiculous. -

In a nutshell at a municipal facility, no. Perhaps they might mark GUR for your club championship, but they are going to focus on providing a facility for the public to use and enjoy. Whether they play by the rules is up to the player. Hopefully they provide some sort of outreach program to grow the game, which typically includes teaching the rules of golf.
