After an inspection today it has been decided to modify the previous determination about bare patches and core marks on the greens.
Please consult point 3 in the list below.
Some News from the Match Committee, 29/1/2025.
With the fairways now in satisfactory condition it has been decided to revert to
PLAY IT AS IT LIES
- On the fairways only, relief can be taken from any bare patch at the nearest point of relief not nearer the hole.
- Bare patches in the rough – play it as it lies.
- Core holes/bare patches on greens, full relief allowed, no nearer the hole, as these are considered abnormal course conditions. The coring was necessary to help the greens recover from the extreme heat over the Xmas period that affected parts of the greens. The staff are working on these areas and you may see some sanding and fertilising taking place.
- Tree Stumps are part of the course and no free relief is available.
