Default Championship Golf Courses

With all the complaining about conditions last year, I feel guilty about not giving credit where credit is due.

I have never seen the Championship courses in better condition than they are right now. I play Mallory, Palmer, Glenview & TDS. With minor exceptions, those courses are all in the condition you might expect at a low-mid tier private country club. They're not Augusta National, but they're in better condition than a lot of the courses that were used for Korn-Ferry 1st & 2nd Stage Qualifying the last couple of months.

& at Palmer and Glenview, all the range balls have been replaced with quality Srixon golf balls. Glenview always used "floaters", but the replacement ball isn't a floater.

A logical conclusion might be, the Developer/Owner heard the complaints last year and decided to address some issues. It's not just happenstance, but a welcome positive step.
