The last couple of years I have played many executive courses where the tee boxes were in very poor shape. That is primarily because of the many “beginner” golfers in The Villages. Covid got some on the golf course that never played before. Many beginners hit the ground before they hit the golf ball. Sometimes they fail to hit the golf ball at all. The divots could hold a small squirrel! Few fix their divots on the courses or ball marks on the greens. They do their best, but Maintenance just can’t keep up with the number of golfers playing so called “free golf” here in The Villages.
