Here in NSW (a state of Australia), our courses were closed for 24 hours 6 weeks ago before the powers came to their senses. We've been playing groups of 2 ever since, no touching the flagstick, no bunker rakes, no smooching etc. Essential, especially for the older generation who really need both the physicality and socialisation golf offers. It's also really had an impact on the interest shown in golf with overbooking and swelling memberships. Who would've thought??

I've played all three courses at Sun River Resort. The greens are like carpet. My first time there I was on the putting green and actually bent down to touch the grass to see if it was real. And then asked the starter and he assured me it was real and all the greens were that perfect. A golfer's dream coming from hot and humid Virginia and the pockmarked greens.

1:00:35 i was greenside at Baltusrol in 1993 when JD was the only player to hit the green on the 630yd 17th- oh the memories The playing conditions were perfect for this Open at Baltusrol, leading to a record 88 players making the cut. But something more extraordinary would occur before this record was established. In the second round, John Daly became the first player in the history of Baltusrol to reach the green in two strokes on the 630-yard seventeenth. Fittingly, the crowd on hand went absolutely wild as Daly's second shot bounced out of the rough and onto the green.
