Golfers are a funny breed of people. The one thing we fear or dislike is rain. Whenever it gets dark and cloudy with a thunderstorm brewing and headed our way, the outing at the golf course becomes rushed as if to beat the rain. Thus, spoiling the mood and pace of the game.
And when it rains coupled with the intensity of lightning charge in the air, players may hole out first then head for shelter or forget the hole and run for safety quickly, regardless of where they are. After all, it is dangerous and I have heard of people being zapped on the golf course. But then again, if the siren does not go off to alert ‘abandon game’, the game is continued in the rain; there has been situations like this.
However, when not on a golf course, a little rain descending upon us becomes an issue. It’s funny considering it is acceptable to be rained on at the golf course but not so in other situations.
Perhaps it’s the attire we wear in that particular situation. When attired for golf, it is okay to get down and dirty and wet but not acceptable when wearing normal clothes. This must be the reason. It is the attire, not the well-being.
