Long before the pandemic the fairways were like playing off dirt. I once was told by an ambassador that THe Villages was the only place where you could get tighter lies from the rough than from the fairways. This started years ago when they stopped over seeding the fairways with winter rye. They stopped it saying that it interfered with the Bermuda grass coming in the spring. Trust me, it had nothing to with that, it was all about money. Lots of courses continue to over seed with no problems. Why should they spend the money when they know regardless of conditions the place will be full?
