| Abstract/Contents: | Profiles Rosslare Golf Course in County Wexford, Ireland, "the setting of the St Andrews Links." States that "the course is a pure links with a traditional out and back routing." Discusses drainage and climate, stating that "the local microclimate shows less rain and more sun than the surrounding areas, and as a result the limited irrigation system installed in the 1970s struggled to keep the course in good condition during the summer." States that "a three year rolling programme [program] of improvements has seen [an]...underground irrigation tank installed, and an upgrade to the irrigation system itself, with...pipes and sprinklers, computer controls and an expansion of coverage to the rough areas as well as the fairways." Concludes that "it will all be up and functioning [spring 2006]." |
