Abstract/Contents:Describes the story of Sing, a Chinese worker, and his job cutting fairways with his white horse at Victoria Golf Club in British Columbia, Canada. Also describes greenkeeper Rocky Rockefeller, stating that he "patrolled the Inverness Golf Club in Ohio on horseback." Concludes that "while people are often soon forgotten, animals can be much longer remembered...Being seen making the rounds on a golf cart with an attractive pup in the passenger seat can do wonders for a superintendent's persona, even from a distance."
