The weather continues to be uncooperative, offering little reprieve in recent weeks. Despite the challenges, we’ve managed to mow all playing surfaces and complete fairway spraying on The Palms golf course. However, rough mowing has been limited due to the wet conditions. The maintenance team is doing its utmost to maintain course standards while taking care to avoid any damage to the playing surfaces. Work on hole 3 of The Palms golf course is well underway, with the edge of the new lake now roughed in using heavy machinery. While recent weather has also posed challenges for the civil contractors, a stretch of dry conditions in the coming weeks should allow us to see significant progress. We thank members for their ongoing patience as we work around the weather to maintain course standards. |
