Why didn't you just invite the single to play in your group?

We would have, but he always stayed on the previous green and practiced putting. There wasn't anybody behind him.
This actually reminds me of something that happened to me about a week ago. I was in a twosome playing behind another slow twosome. There was a fairly fast threesome behind us. Over the course of the first nine holes we were at the tee waiting as the guys in front of us were teeing off and the not once asked if we wanted to play through or join them.
Finally on the eighth hole which was a par 3 they were not even on the green yet and we had been waiting to tee off for several minutes and the motion up to us to hit our tee shots. We do so and then they finish putting as we do the same. Before we have a chance to say anything they drive off to the next hole, tee off, and then continue without us. WTF???? Needless to say the group behind us wasn't happy at all. We discovered that they had complained and a ranger informed the group in front of us to let us join them or play through. Apparantly they didn't realize thet we were joining them for the entirety of the round and not just that one hole. All they did was create more of a back up. It was awful.
