CGRA Members Attend Pinehurst No. 2 Grand Re-Opening
With apologies for anyone I missed (it was a big crowd).....
The CGRA membership was well represented in the large group of media in attendance at the grand re-opening of Pinehurst No. 2. The weather was perfect and the golf course did not disappoint. CGRA members spotted.... Stephen Boyd, Michael Dann, Craig Distl, Bob Gillespie, Bill Hensley, Betsey Mitchell, Lee Pace, Rich Rushforth, and Howard Ward.
Images from the day:

Hole #9 - even more awesome with the monster bunker on the left |

It's difficult to capture the essence of the "new" look of the golf course with the two dimensions of a photograph. Looking forward to seeing how the maturation of the wire grass and the general settling of the bunkering and waste areas enhances the design. It was a bold move. | |
