It is sometimes considered necessary to have marshals travelling with a particular group of players. They must be sure that the galleries stay out of ropes, do not take any photographs, do not speak on their phones and have them in a silent mode; they must stop when the game is going on and watch the players quietly.
The marshals must stay inside of the ropes, but they must NOT enter the golf course, and should always face the audience. They will have to curl up when the players are playing to let the audience see the game clearly.
