Just played Lopez this past Monday 10/30. Greens were spectacular, check the grain direction quite a difference in speed., 1st cut was in bad shape on a good number of holes. Looked like the grass was burned off from either poison or over fertilization. Some having 3/4 of the 1st cut gone. The repaired tees that were sodded were dying off for lack of water and the sod was not laid down properly. It was very uneven and lumpy. They will need to be redone IMO. There were still anumber of tee boxes that were shut down and be scalped, moving the blue & whites together on the same tee box. I'm sure they know what happen because too much damage was caused to not know. Faiways were good, traps maintained. Tees don't bother me too much as you tee up anyway. A little hunt for some level areas on the terrible sod job to put your feet and it was drive away.
