Course condition all this week and through into next week is a disappointment.

The weather has defeated us and it will take a good 7-10 days to get back on top of our workload.
Heavy rain on Sunday and Monday, almost 40mm has washed out most of the bunkers and made cutting of even fine turf areas difficult.  This coupled with very strong growth and temperatures rising will mean soft, sappy and ultimately weak, messy areas for a while.

Greens are easier to control in these conditions and the warmer weather is helping to fill in any imperfections in the surface.  Tees and Aprons are now being cut once a week and whilst this shouldn't be a problem, strong soft growth make good clean surfaces difficult to maintain.  Fairways and rough will slow in the next few weeks and will soon resemble a golf course but bunkers will stay in their present condition until the weather breaks.
