On the GCM blog
- In Taking a bite out of Torrey Pines, GCM Editor Scott Hollister recounts his experience playing the South Course Torrey Pines, site of the 2008 U.S. Open. Although the open is still a couple of months away, Hollister says it was all the golf course he could handle. It will be interesting to see what happens in June when Golf Digest sends one amateur out with three celebrities to tackle the course. To cast vote for one of the finalists click here.
- Senior Associate Editor Seth Jones is in Rancho Mirage, Calif., for the Kraft Nabisco Championship. So far he's shadowed GCSAA's LPGA Tour Agronomist John Miller, CGCS, checked out the media center, and talked to Joe Lua, superintendent of the Dinah Shore Tournament Course.
- Jones also caught up with Lorena Ochoa when she visited the Mission Hills maintenance center. She not only showed her appreciation for the work the staff does, but took a turn scrambling eggs for breakfast.
- Hollister reports on two more superintendents who have joined the blogosphere.
