To increase firmness on the golf course for THE PLAYERS, we lowered the height of cuts and implemented a very selective watering program. Because of these practices many “hot spots” appeared in the approaches and fairway edges on the golf course. To help aid in the recovery process hoses were sent to the golf course with moisture tablets to help the localized dry spots retain water.

Volunteer Shootout on 17

    On the Monday after the tournament, we offered our volunteers the opportunity to try their hand at hitting the 17th green.  The volunteer shootout was a show of our appreciation for all of their hard work throughout the week. 

 The volunteers take a crack at hitting the green.
Duncan Seiling, from the UK, had the closest shot to the pin and won the 17th green tournament flag.
