| Abstract/Contents: | Discusses "the more common changes that occur to putting greens as a result of play, management practices, the passage of time, and the effects of natural selection." Highlights several natural occurrences which can affect putting greens, including thatch development, maturation, segregation, and weed invasion. States that "the maturation process depends on a variety of factors, including weather, length of growing season, species, cultivar, construction methods and materials, irrigation, [and] fertility." Also mentions contours and the shape of a green as potential factors influencing green evolution, stating that "greens often get smaller over time, and irregularly shaped greens frequently become more rounded." |
