I played Southern Oaks today. It's still in GREAT condition. The superintendent has aerated (plugs) the rough in several areas.
One staff person at S.O. told me that the courses with big problems did not handle the wet conditions, causing greens to deteriorate rapidly. At one point, S.O. stopped watering greens for roughly 10 days! They also slit aerated (small holes, no plugs).
Some green superintendents are smarter than others.
