Pretty common maintenance plan for Florida golf courses.
By the way, it's not paint. It's more like a food coloring.
There's noting wrong with playing off of dormant Bermuda. In fact a lot of good players prefer it. Plant pigment is added to make it look nice because most golfers think that green is good.
