  • Förberedelser Och Skötsel Av Mästerskapsbana
    Förberedelser och skötsel av mästerskapsbana ett arbete om Solheim Cup 2007 på Halmstad Golfklubb Andreas Jönsson (760426-4676) 0708584440 – [email protected] Halmstad, 2008-07-29 HGU 2006 Handledare: Kim Sintorn Sammanfattning För att preparera en bana både före och under en tävling behöver man mycket resurser i form av personal, maskiner och transportfordon. Under Solheim Cup på Halmstad Golfklubb visade det sig krävas mer än en fördubbling av personalstyrkan. Med denna ökning följde självklart ett behov av i stort sett en lika stor ökning av antalet maskiner och transportfordon. Exempelvis kör en foregreenklippare både norra och södra banan under högsäsong. Under Solheim Cup nyttjades två stycken enbart på tävlingsbanan (norra). Eftersom antalet greenkeepers och maskiner helt plötsligt blir mycket stort är det viktigt att man utarbetar en detaljerad plan över vem som ska göra vad och med vilken maskin, eller åtminstone hur många personer som krävs för varje arbetsuppgift. Detta bör man enligt mig börja med så tidigt som möjligt. Det är också viktigt att man, om möjligt, ännu tidigare arbetar fram en plan över vad som skall göras på banan inför tävlingen, alltså inte bara skötseln under tävlingsveckan. Med ett normalt skötselprogram säsongerna innan en tävling kommer man troligtvis inte behöva göra några radikala förändringar i detta program. Det som krävdes hos oss var dock en ökning i frekvens på valda moment ur programmet. Dessa var i princip gödsling, luftning, vertikalskärning samt dressning. Utöver detta krävdes det också några inte varje år förekommande arbeten. För att lokalisera dessa hade vi på Halmstad Golfklubb stor hjälp av LET:s Tour Agronomist Julian Mooney och tre bankonsulenter från SGF, nämligen Mikael Frisk, Göran Hansson samt Kim Sintorn.

In its first ever NCAA men’s golf match play national championship appearance, Oklahoma won its second national championship in program history with a 3-1-1 victory over defending champion Oregon at Rich Harvest Farms. “I had a good feeling (this) week. My wife and I had talked about this before we went to regionals that we aren’t the best putting team and at regionals, you got to be able to do somethings at the right time to advance through,” Sooners coach Ryan Hybl said. “I told her I was hoping that this group was going to get a chance to shine. If they had an opportunity this week, they were going to do something crazy good. “This has been our best individual year. We had five individual winners, which not a lot of teams can say. The firepower was there.” Oklahoma’s championship was its first since 1989 at Oak Tree Country Club in Edmonds, Oklahoma, a championship co-hosted with rival Oklahoma St.. The Sooners lost in the quarterfinal round of the 2016 NCAA Men’s Golf Championship. Blaine Hale put the first point on the board, downing Oregon’s Norman Xiong 4&3 as he sank a birdie putt on the 15th green. Xiong had the early momentum in the match, winning the first hole and the early one-up advantage.

    Women’s Golf Tournament Program - 116 pages PING CELEBRATES 50 YEARS IN G OLF RICH HARVEST FARMS Fifty years ago, the first PING® putter was shipped from the Redwood City, California, garage of Karsten and Louise Solheim. The PING® 1A™ putter inaugurated a revolution in golf club design and manufacturing that would see Karsten’s company grow into a brand world-renowned for innovation and unequalled quality. Karsten, with his family at his side, went on to pioneer custom fitting and bring new processes to the manufacturing of golf clubs, including investment casting and heat treating. He recognized the value of scientific research and employed high speed cameras and a robotic golfer (The PING® Man) to analyze the dynamics of the golf club. His insistence on adhering to strict engineering principles and tight manufacturing tolerances raised the level of product performance and quality throughout the golf industry. It all led to more enjoyment for golfers all over the world. An engineer with an extensive background in the defense, aerospace and computer industries, he remains the only engineer to be inducted into the World Golf Hall of Fame. Among the game-changing products that will be forever associated with Karsten are the Anser® putter and EYE2® irons. BUNKER HILL His wife of 63 years, Louise, who turned 91 in June, vividly remembers RICH HARVEST FARMS the moment Karsten informed her of his new putter’s name. “He came Be careful running into the kitchen,” she recalled, “and said, ‘I’ve got a name for my putter.’ I said ‘That’s nice, honey,’ and we ate our hamburgers and Proud sponsorof the of LPGA flat green vegetables without any particular celebration.

  • Chicago Golf Club
    INFORMATION FOR GUESTS Historical Notes The Chicago Golf Club was founded in 1892 by Charles Blair Macdonald and other prominent Chicagoans who wanted to play the game they had experienced during their travels to Scotland. The USGA recognizes the original course they built in Belmont (now Downers Grove) as the first 18-hole course in the United States. In 1895, Chicago Golf opened Macdonald’s new course, built on more spacious land that the Club had acquired in Wheaton. Macdonald, who also became the first U.S. Amateur Champion, wanted the course built in keeping with the style and tradition of the great courses in Britain. Macdonald’s belief that trees were not an appropriate hazard opened great vistas across the course and subjected play to the vagaries of the wind. Macdonald evolved this style over the next quarter century as he became the first golf course architect of renown in the U.S. At Macdonald’s suggestion, Chicago Golf was redesigned by his protégé Seth Raynor, with the new course opening in 1923. Chicago Golf’s 21st century course is still Raynor’s original design. The “modern” course features several prototype Macdonald/Raynor holes that are considered among their best – the “Road Hole” 2nd, the “Biarritz” 3rd, the “Redan” 7th, “Punchbowl” 12th were modeled on the great holes in European golf, while the “Cape” 4th and 14th holes were based on an original Macdonald/Raynor design. James Foulis from St. Andrews, Scotland, was the Club’s first professional. An excellent player and clubmaker, Foulis won the second U.S.
