| Abstract/Contents: | Presents the results from the 2003 Golf Course Superintendents Association of America (GCSAA) survey, reporting that "59 percent contend Jack Nicklaus faced tougher competition during his career while 41 percent believe Tiger Woods has the greater challenge." Also reports that "fifty percent of superintendents responding to the survey believe Roundup Ready creeping bentgrass will have the biggest impact on the professionn [from 2003-2013]." Mentions that "superintendents are largely focused on buying new equipment, as 45 percent said this is the area where most capital expenditures would occur." Also reports that "half of those quearied said that fewer than 10 percent of avid golfers understand that courses hosting majors are brought to peak condition and those conditions are sustainable for no more than a few days. Almost three-quarters (74 percent), said fewer than 30 percent of avid golfers are aware of the fact." |
