Poa annua greens have a checkered reputation, but they also provide great putting surfaces like the ones at Oakmont. In the right circumstances, there are plenty of reasons to praise Poa 👇

Wow. That was one of the most exciting Sunday afternoons at a U.S. Open I’ve ever seen. Congrats to JJ Spaun for winning his first major on the strength of one of the most resilient back nine bounce backs in golf history. After a front nine 40 with bad shots and bad breaks

Gray Leaf Spot in upstate NY…in mid-June. 🤯🤯 Stay vigilant out there. This is by far the earliest I’ve seen GLS this far north. Protect that tall fescue and perennial ryegrass.
