Abstract/Contents: | Discusses Druid Hills Golf Club's testing of Crenshaw greens. Explains some of the challenges the crew at Druid Hills has faced in greens maintenance, including "overbearing heat", severe storms, and Hurricane Opal. Explains that the new greens were planted "by planting it [the Crenshaw seed] directly into the existing thatch." Describes the preparation for the 2001 National Amateur golf tournament, for which the greens "should be completely mature, true, and fast." |
