  The same level of difficulty that it takes to just behave like a decent human being. Why should he, or anyone else have to tolerate that sort of behavior? The younger generations (<35) grew up with that "Oh, just ignore it." mentality, and look at what we've got. A bunch of foul mouthed Neanderthals that think that the rest of us should just tolerate them AND their behavior.

  Note their names and report their behavior. If it's during a game, ask them to knock it off. If they don't. give up the game and move on. Report them and block them so you don't have to tolerate them any more.

  This USED to be a gentleman's sport. I will report any such behavior, here, or on a real course. I've dropped a membership over the club not dealing with this behavior. Me, or them. There are plenty of courses out there to enjoy the game on. We shouldn't have to deal with the results of someone's bad parenting skills. On the course, in this game, or in society.

  There's a bad apple in every bushel. There are many many bushels on this game. Pick your friends and you won't have to deal with this. I dealt with it a long time ago. I choose my opponents now and have no issues.

  Put these players on your 'Blocked List' and you won't have to put up with them anymore.

  If you think profanity has no place in golf, I don't suggest you root for Tiger Woods.

  Nonsense.

  Thanks guys for all the comments. I have taken some of your advice and will be making sure that those who abuse common decency will no longer be able to play with me. I would hope that many of you would agree that vulgar and bad behavior have no place in the game of golf, real or otherwise. Thanks for the input.

  You find the flashing Chat tab annoying?

  C'mon - How complicated is it for you to assume some adult responsibility and just ignore the flashing Chat tab?

  To many people look to WGT and programming for solutions to issues few other players perceive as a problem.

   

  it's called NITPICKING......

  A - tell the players to F of if it`s directed towards you.

  B - don`t take notice of the chat

  C - swearing name calling hear it every day everywhere anytime in normal day to day life.

  D - Grow a pair

  E - If you think the players you played with after the round are tosses never play with them again.

  F - leave the game your in if you take offence 

  G - report the players
