Abstract/Contents: | Discusses the influence of media sources on golfer expectations of course aesthetics, stating that "'far too many golfers continue to believe that their courses must be as lush and green as the courses they see on television each week.'" Suggests bunker and rough maintenance as a potential area of input reduction and encourages golfers to "[embrace] changes that will serve not only golf's sustainability but also the spirit of the game." |
