U S Amateur Qualifier

Well, the U S Amateur Qualifier has just been completed at Rolling Green Golf Club and Llanerch. I believe the course held up very well. The average 18 hole score was 80. It just confirms that Llanerch is truly a tough test of golf. The course had green speeds just around 11.5 feet before the rain.
I have had many people ask "who picks the pin placements"? For this tournament, as is with every other GAP sponsored event, it is done by the GAP officials. I do review them but they do such a good job, we rarely have to make adjustments. I would also like to thank all the participants for their kind compliments. We really appreciate it.

With the help of architects Brian and Blake, we are now seeing what the new bunkers look like. This one is on 10 green right side. They will not have the fescue "eyebrow" we have had in the past. For more updates, please follow me @BrendanJByrne01 on Twitter.

Golf Course Update (Groundhog Day Version)

Another day without rain. That has been the story for the last 2 weeks. We have been working hard to keep the course with just enough water to keep the plants alive and still be firm and fast. You will also notice that we are no longer mowing the intermediate cut around fairways. With the planned addition of 3 to 4 acres of fairway, it was deemed unnecessary to keep it. If you have any questions regarding the renovation, please feel free to contact me at your convenience. Thank you and see you on the course!
