Pitiful but so are many Championship courses. Some of Havana's tee boxes are nothing more than dirt. And the fairways are cut so low that it is like playing off of cart paths. TV's Director of Golf, David Williams, recently told me that they set the mower's at 5/8". Apparently someone doesn't know how to read a tape measure because I have never, ever seen any if our fairways above 1/4" and most of the time, lower than that.
