the greens, which is a little
unusual in today's world,"
Wenzloff confirmed. "They
didn't need that sort of work.
But the putting surfaces here
had gotten a bit smaller over
time, to the point where
some of their various defense
mechanisms were too far
away. So we recaptured
those green areas in the fall
of 2016. There was already
a great deal of flexibility in
terms of hole locations. When
we get the speed dialed in
where we want it, we'll really
be able to take advantage
of some post-recapture hole
locations."
