Since l to gripe about golf traditions that nobody else even notices - The rules about not reading another player's putt - What a sham, and general annoyance when watching.
It's so silly that you can't stand behind and watch someone's putt, yet they do that dog and pony show where they pretend they're walking over to line up their putt as soon as the other player strikes the ball, but they're really swooping in to cheat as much of a read as they can under the guise of walking to their ball.
It only annoys me because as a viewer there's so many damn putts you miss because the other player walks in front of the camera while trying to cheat a read. Either let players read putts or make them stand in place until the opponents ball stops moving.
