Abstract/Contents:Profiles the Leek Golf Club in Staffordshire, England, focusing on a previous maintenance program and the resulting problems. States that "the greens were overfed and overwatered to achieve colour [color] and top growth. The result was thatch, and lots of it." Continues that "a radical change in policy governing the maintenance of the course took place in 2003, with the introduction of a new Head Greenkeeper." Details the steps taken by John Turner, Head Greenkeeper for the course, to restore the grounds to a healthy condition.
