Course closed

Another 27mm of rain has fallen since my last post, keeping the course well and truly closed. The drainage system on the golf course is removing water to its full potential, however the amount of water on the course will take time to work its way into the ditches and ponds. Here's some pictures from this afternoon.

Where the greenstaff installed extensive drainage a couple of years ago, is drier and much improved, however as you can see it not just localised flooding.

The greenstaff have continued with edging and flymoing bunkers, staining clubhouse furniture, and divoting tees.
