As far as speed of play at the USDGC, I (spotter on hole 9) saw very little time difference between the performance and the open divisions; if anything the open took longer per throw but the performance had more throws. Saturday's rain definitely slowed everything down; play took 25+% longer than the previous rounds.
Concerning course officials. the USDGC had 6 marshalls, each one responsible for 3 holes. As JC stated they were not actively trying to make time/stance types of calls. In addition, the volunteer spotters were almost all certified officials, we were encouraged not to make any calls with regard to rules.
