| Abstract/Contents: | Details rennovations made to Torrey Pines South Course in San Diego, California, for the 2008 U.S. (United States) Open. Describes the focus of Mark Woodward, city golf manager, stating "our focus now is working in the Kikuyu and eliminating the rye and Poa annua." Mentions that "a massive bunker on the right side of the 18th hole was reworked...[and] two more bunkers were added [on the sixth hole]." Also mentions that ice plants and eucalyptus trees were cut back and tees were expanded on the 2nd, 3rd, and 5th holes. Emphasizes the importance of working on Kikuyu because "the USGA [United States Golf Association] wants all Kikuyu out here." |
