This icon is right in the way of the green a lot of the time... very poor placement from WGT.
I don't see the option to remove it in the game settings, is it called something different?
You can x it out, or wait a few seconds until it disappears.
Edit: That was meant for the "last shot on ball" pop-up.
on game settings
display scroll right to the bottom it says tee shot data click off that will get rid of it
