Just recieved notice of our next grounds meeting where the budget for the 2009 season gets presented. At lunch today heard a "rumor" from a unidentified source with close contacts on the finance commttee that can't stop crying that the green committee budget has been cut by 1/3. Looks like another year without Augusta National conditions. My first question to the new green keeper what area's of the course can we STOP maintaining (not cut back, but STOP) that in your opinion will have little or no impact on play. Yeah, that ought to fly.
