    heard yesterday that the greens in carlow are not the best.

    Playing the Royal Curragh Sunday...

    should be good

    Curragh, played it yesterday, great course, no poor hole, great variety and plenty favourable fairways, good run at the moment too. You don't really need to have played the course before as most shots are plain to see. Only piece of advice would be to keep to the right of the par 5 13th due to sloping fairway that runs off left into wind bushes where you can say goodbye to your ball should it go that way.

    Carlow, played it two weeks ago, a number of the opening greens were diseased and very black in patches, reasonable to putt across but if your ball landed in the areas affected then it plugged as they were quite damp.

    Not sure if it's going to be rescheduled. Just saw a message on their website last week stating that it had been cancelled

    Spoke to one of the Killarney members who was involved at weekend. They are hoping to refix their Scratch Cup on a Saturday in October over 18 holes. I believe it was cancelled due to a poor entry.
