It’s been more than two years since a representative of the United States Golf Association (USGA) Green Section visited the Wailua Golf Course to rate the condition of its turf. The results of the visit released were more positive than the County of Kaua’i could have imagined.
USGA’s Northwest Director Larry Gilhuly said:
"Since the time of the last visit in the summer of 2009, the overall change on the golf course is one of the best seen in 28 years by the USGA Green Section," USGA’s Northwest Director Larry Gilhuly.
In his turf advisory, Gilhuly noted that while putting surfaces at the Wailua Golf Course are certainly not ‘perfect,’ they are easily the best municipal greens viewed in Hawai’i and are superior to many of the well-known resort courses in the state.
The report concluded that the Wailua Golf Course is now ready to host a major USGA event, e.g. the USGA Amateur Public Links Championships.
Kaua’i folks are invited to the 18th annual Christmas Parade at Kukui Grove shopping center tomorrow beginning at 4:30.
