Golf Digest’s shout-out to supers

Nice bit in the new issue (Nov. 2011, Bubba Watson on the cover) of Golf Digest.

In the Editor’s Letter, Golf Digest Editor-in-Chief Jerry Tarde gave his ‘birdie of the month’ to superintendents. He wrote:


“As natural disasters ravaged the country this summer — from Hurricane Irene and flooding in the East to fires in Texas and extreme heat all over — maintenance crews labored countless hours to get our courses back to playable. And most (superintendents) have done it with the tighter budgets brought on by a slumping economy. They deserve patience, time and our appreciation.”

Hear, hear, Jerry!
