Little lumpy around 1st cut

Quite a bit of damage to the greens ( lots of big sand repairs) and the 1st cut was a bit trashed…

Perfect weather

Why must it be this way?

Why is it that in a place that has the climate to play golf 365 days a year, the local golf courses are in such poor shape? Huge patches of dirt, little to no grass in the "Fairway" , bunkers that are hard as rock, etc.? In all the times I have played this course, I have never seen a single person working on the course. Not one. The only way you would ever know people work on the course is that the pins change position. From 3 paces from the back to 3 paces from the front. It's really a shame to see golf courses put in the minimum effort, yet always try squeeze every nickel they can from the players. What's next, coin operated ball washers?

Because we have had a drought for 10 years. Even though the city reclaims water for use on golf courses and public parks, it hasn’t rained for so long in any consistent manner and the temperatures have been above average at the same time, very warm and dry weather, it is what it is. And then the economy collapsed in 2008, so that was the first big drive in higher prices, which also reduced the number of golfers playing. And then we just had the pandemic which also messed everything up with people not allowed to work. And then the recent inflation raised prices. All the public courses have been better days when money and water was in abundance during the heydays. As long as we get some rains, the courses will be better. The bunkers are another story though
