According to a golf course in Seogwipo on the 20th, the day before, at a public 9-hole course, the group behind complained about the slow pace caused by the group ahead using multiple balls and taking several shots repeatedly, which led to an emotional confrontation between the groups.


The police stated, "When we arrived at the scene, the dispute between both parties was somewhat resolved, and a smooth settlement was in progress, so no charges were filed."


A bystander who witnessed the incident commented, “Golf is a sport of consideration, manners, and gentlemanly conduct. Players should cooperate and yield to maintain the flow of the game. Seeing such a commotion that required police intervention, it seems that learning manners should come before playing golf,” expressing disappointment.
