Second chance was at the bathroom but no you couldn't fill a cup due to lack of pressure. Third chance at last water station didn't have any water period!!! Sorry but this is unacceptable!! Remember the good old days when the ambassadors drove up and asked if you wanted some cold water; they say they can't do it safely any more when you ask. Just another example of poor golf management; or as they like to say blame it on the weather!!

Was sorry to see that small concession/concern for residents "disappear". Suppose every penny saved is important, but to me it's a shame. Yes, will definitely HAVE to remember to take water/drinks. Just played 9 yesterday and realized what I "should" have done.... was miserable until got to drinking fountain, and then found the water unappetizing to be polite about it. Wonder why/who decided it would be a good idea to NOT have the ambassadors offer cold water ? Is there any chance that, in the future, they will begin putting "for sale" bottles of water on all ambassador carts ? I know probably not "beer/sandwich" offerings as that involves licenses, health inspections, etc. but perhaps at least selling the previously free water ? Who knows ! Have not even checked, is free water still offered to tennis and pickle ball players ?
