Played on Sunday, Jan. 17, 2010. I have mentioned it before, but I will say it again. This is probably the finest LA City course. Finished the round just as the rain started from an expected trio of storms. Temporary tees on hole 5 moved us 50 yards up the slope. Greens were rolling smooth and held shots well. The left, front of 7 green was a little thin, but not terrible. Fairways and rough (kikuyu grass) were not quite dormant and left decent lies pretty much everywhere. The one bunker I was in was o.k. and the rest looked to be in decent shape. Our group fixed a lot of ball marks on the greens, but they were fresh. That tells me someone in a group ahead of us did not bother to fix. The only other thing I can say is there were a lot of range balls on 18 fairway. Not just near the fence, but all over the last 150 yards. I guess the left side of 9 may have been just as bad. Just about 5 hours to walk on a Sunday. I aint cryin' about the pace, because I know it can get worse here.
