Tournament Operations Golf Course Management Workshop by James Graham Prusa James Graham Prusa

Tournament Operations 24. Tournament Operations – From Club Events to International Tour Events James Graham Prusa

Tour events and standards cannot be kept perpetually It takes 1 to 3 years to ‘ramp up’ to the peak of Tour conditions that are intended to only last for 1 week! At the majors and other top events we exert serious stresses on the golf course On the turfgrass On the club On the staff On finances Top tier tournament conditions should only be approached for the briefest moment in time Tournament Operations James Graham Prusa

Applying what the tour standards have taught us to routine management Tournament Operations Good turfgrass health management practices help to balance high- quality conditions and their usually higher costs. James Graham Prusa

How do they achieve those ‘Tour Conditions?’ ‘Preparation’ is just as key for the kitchen and for the golf course The key is planning and taking time to ‘ramp up’ for peaking conditions ‘just-in-time’ for the event Tournament Operations James Graham Prusa

Ball roll – not speed! James Graham Prusa

Play levels are the same – 90,000 rounds per year They are located only 1 kilometer apart – climate and other course factors the same What was the only real difference between the maintenance on these two courses? The superintendents used different fertilizer regimes Hanul applied virtually no Phosphorus (P) all season Hanul applied an average of 3-4 grams of N / m 2 per month Ocean applied considerable P and only 1.5 – 2 grams of N / m 2 per month PREPARING 2 COURSES CONCURRENTLY FOR TOUR CHAMPIONSHIPS COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF HANUL AND OCEAN COURSES TOUR CONDITIONING: James Graham Prusa
