Although not in terrible shape like the greens at Havana or Evans, I was nonetheless disappointed with the greens at Riley (Palmer) earlier this week. That particular 9 was completely renovated in 2022 and has practically brand new greens that were not in good shape at all, especially when compared to courses like Tierra, Glenview, Lopez, and even Hacienda. It’s both sad and troubling how newly renovated greens can go to crap in less than a year and a half, especially at the Villages signature course. It’s hard to place the blame on anything other than incompetence.
