Is this some kind of weed that has infiltrated our courses or was it deliberately planted? It doesn't seem to be the type of grass that belongs on a golf course, especially fringes. On most course I've played, the fringes are the same type grass as the greens but cut slightly higher.

Is there any way to communicate with the powers that be to discuss this or any other issues?
