Putting Green Speed – the average speed this morning was in the low 12s and will settle into the mid-upper 11s as the day goes on. Greens were single cut last night and they were double cut and rolled again this morning.
Water Management – due to the lingering effects of the 1.1 inches of rainfall that fell Wednesday evening; there was no need to apply water to the golf course as moisture levels were adequate. However, we will be checking specific putting greens between waves to ensure appropriate moisture levels remain throughout the day.
