Course Flooded

A short update:

The course was hit hard with the storm last evening and then steady rain from about midnight until 5:30 this morning. Easily the same if not more precipitation than the last heavy rain we dealt with a few weeks ago. The course is closed at present. The grounds crew is prepping for this afternoon and the first round of the Club Championship. We are setting pins and tees, mowing greens, raking bunkers (which have held up remarkabley well) and pumping water. The forecast is not good. The grounds crew and myself are dissappointed with the turn of events but there is no controlling the weather. I felt we had the course exactly where it should be the day before a major tournament. We will do our best to deliver the best possible course setup considering the conditions and forecast.
