These greens MUST be tested for coronavirus ASAP.

I played Palmetto last week. Greens had been aerated and sanded. That could have something to do with it...

I agree!

I played there as well. I agree it's in bad shape but they are not ignoring it...... looked to me like they are working hard on it. I just enjoyed a couple of hours playing with people I like. :coolsmiley:

Seems as though TV would keep up the golf courses in the pristine manner they used to be kept. Golf is their stock in trade. The decline is noticeable even to a casual observer.

They should quarantine this course and few others.

Whether you accept poorly maintained golf courses as acts of nature or incompetence, the fact remains that playing conditions are significantly better outside of TV and that should never be the case. Especially given the fees we pay...and we provide our own carts!!!
