“Goodness, what happened in 18 months since I last played this course? The layout has not changed, but it may be the worst-conditioned course I have ever played. There is practically no grass on the fairways, the greens were shocking and there was practically no sand in the bunkers. Either Montgomery County has cut the budget or fired the super. All in all, very sad to see, and NO mention of conditioning before paying our green fee!"
