There is a debate to be had about the safety of that specific barrier placement.
I only saw the clip, and it didn't look bad from that. But, I suppose that would depend on the course leading up to it. If it were a blind approach, without a sightline to the barrier on entry...maybe there's an argument, particularly if they weren't allowed to scout ahead of time.
Were they allowed to scout the course beforehand, or was it "blind"? Either way it still seems:
1. They scouted the course and should have known, or...
2. It was a blind course, and they should have been paying more attention.
Barring something egregious, I'm probably still on the side of "hey, watch where you are going."
