Silver Lake must be where they train people to work on a course. The greens here have been by far the worst that i have played anywhere in the world.
If on the rare occasion they manage to pull off a proper cutting, then the holes are crooked and the flag lists about 15%.
Right now, and for the past two weeks the greens are truly unputtable. I doubt if the holes have been cut in a week as the grass is growing in on all sides.
Yes, i have in the past reported this stuff to Matt L. but i only get a response back stating that all is well and this is the way it needs to be.
I was an assistant GCS for a few years, i know better. I have golfed in 5 countries on three continents and even courses way off the track, family operated with age old equipment that do better than Silver Lake.
Many courses in TV seem to come back quickly, this one just gets worse.
