Overseeding - another thread about grass?
What you are seeing is that any grass that is not over seeded will tend to go dormant and look brown this through the winter. On the executive courses they only over seed the tees and greens on all par 3s. On the championship courses they over seed the tees, greens and fairways. Even on the championship courses the rough goes brown and is sometimes very very short, almost non existent. That lack of grass can make some delicate short shots around the green some of most embarrassing I have ever played 
Here is an overview I found of why they do it...
Overseeding begins in The Villages Oct. 1 - Villages News: News in The Villages, FL and surrounding communities
