Another challenging end to the week saw more than 60mm of rain fall across the courses. With the ground already saturated, water levels have risen in areas not seen for some time. Fortunately, ahead of the weather we were able to mow both courses and apply additional fertility to fairway areas weakened by winter shade and excess moisture. Storm-damaged tree removals have again been delayed, but will be rescheduled as soon as conditions allow. On The Palms golf course, hole 3 is progressing well, with turf establishing as expected and only landscape planting left to complete. Hole 10 is also taking shape, with rough contours and preliminary bunker forms now in place. In the coming weeks, we anticipate completing the rock walls around the lakes and commencing irrigation installation. |
