Turtle Mound just reopened a few days ago. Tee boxes were beautiful. Every green had significant amounts of bare spots and mottled turf. On one hole the greens keeper had the nerve to cut the hole in the middle of bare spots. I don’t think they touched the greens during the closure. A real maintenance failure.

I think you have it confused with a different course. They most certainly did work to the greens you can see the repair jobs. The greens are so much better than when they closed the course. There is still some patches in the greens but no more than some of the other courses. Why don’t you thank these grounds workers when you see them instead of bashing them it goes a long way.

No confusion. Those were the worst greens I've played in months.

Good news is you got 40 others to play. I played them Friday and Sunday and only problem I had was the patches in them and from talking to grounds crew that is just something we have to deal with until they re build them
