Inside the Venue At A Glance
02
MixedWalking, cart & spectator route
Golf has no fixed seat: players should confirm walking, cart, caddie, practice-area, and check-in rules; spectators should plan which holes to follow, accessible routes, and the distance between viewing areas.
03
PositiveWeather & on-course day
A golf day is exposed to sun, wind, rain, terrain, and long walking distances; footwear, water, layers, and allowed-item rules can matter more than a conventional venue seat.
