    FROM THE DESK OF HEAD COACH MIKE SMALL In my 19 years as the head golf coach at the University of Illinois, the landscape of college golf and our program has changed immensely. One thing that has stayed the same though is this program’s incredible support from alumni, fans and donors. As we approach the 18th Annual Illini Golf Classic hosted by Illini Tour Professionals, I can’t stress enough how grateful we are for your support and commitment to making the Illini Golf Classic a great success. Through your participation, sponsorship and auction involvement, our golf team has been afforded the opportunity to play and compete on some of the best courses and against some of the top teams in the country. Coming up this season, our squad will be tested on premier courses such as Olympia Fields, Crooked Stick, Isleworth, Mirabel, Cypress Point and Calusa Pines. This outing also helps the success of our team by outfitting our first-class Demirjian Indoor and Lauritsen/Wohlers Outdoor Golf Practice Facilities with premier equipment and training aids. The Illini Golf Classic is unique because of the loyalty that Illini touring professionals have towards the event, and their desire to come back to support their program, while also spending time with the many Illini friends that have followed their careers. Illini greats Steve Stricker, D.A. Points, Scott Langley, Luke Guthrie, Thomas Pieters, Brian Campbell and Thomas Detry have all become household names on the PGA, Web.com and European Tours and have graciously donated their time and effort to our event.

MARCH 2017 Issue No. 91 Tee off with the Captain Dear Members, I would like to thank all members for their overwhelming support which made it possible for me to serve as the Club Captain. It is my endeavour to improve the playing conditions on both the Lodhi and Peacock Courses through the year, by incorporating better maintenance practices. In order to achieve these high standards, we will be preparing a detailed Master Plan incorporating immediate, medium and long term objectives. Our immediate focus, after assuming office in October 2016, was the onerous task to prepare the golf course for the Panasonic Open, an Asian Tour event. Accordingly, a maintenance schedule was put in place to arrest the problem on the greens, and they started showing signs of recovery. Sodding of contaminated patches that had spread over the past many years, was undertaken on a war footing by using Tifdwarf grass from the nursery. The nursery is now being redeveloped to plant pure Tifdwarf grass and for modern grasses to be used in the future.
