Name restrictions by the golf courses. If they don't allow to use their name there is no way to do so.

There are a few on that list of which we also have the course in the database by its real name.

I had figured in some cases it might have to do with rights/permissions to use the name. But I could also see where a course designer might not be comfortable that a course matches the real one closely enough to use its name and would give it another name instead.

I know for sure we had some courses with restrictions, Augusta was one of them, the first course had to be renamed. Not sure if something changed meenwhile but TPC Sawgrass is a PG course and they didn't have the right to use the real name.

Maybe something changed with the user created courses, not really sure.
