I further interrupt my analysis of Mike Clayton’s changes at Peninsula Country Golf Club for another topical issue. Green coring is a necessary evil in order to maintain the best possible standard of green. I think everybody accepts that.
However, it would be really good if Golf Operations at the club ensured that, as far as possible, scheduled competition rounds are played on the non-cored course. I know we have a custom of rotating the course week by week for regular competitions, but surely it would be sensible to slightly modify this to enable members to play comps on the best available course at the time.
Of course, this comment is made on the assumption that Golf Operations at PCGC hold members interests foremost. I certainly hope it’s not the case that Golf Operations give course access priority to fee paying guests who would otherwise refuse to play on cored greens.
