Golf is a dying sport. Courses where I live have been closing, some have been turned into parks
The one near me got turned into 500 houses. The water infra couldn't cope and everywhere now floods when it rains.
Damn. If only we kept the golf course.
The golf course absorbed a lot of rainfall in the soil, and I live downhill from it. Rainfall now goes into them stormwater system instead of into the soil.
Even though the new houses have drainage that is sufficient, it all runs into an existing pipeline that can't handle it.
As bad as golf courses are for the environment, paving over it is 100x worse.
Well, yeah. Roads, houses and driveways don’t soak up rain. Probably whatever was there prior to the golf course did a better job at that. And the current key is “pipeline that can’t handle it”
Courses were over-built in the 90s.
Wall Street Journal: “Millennials Are Killing Golf Courses”
I wish they would at least let you walk on the cart paths before /after hours. I've seen one course that did that - allowed walkers once the sprinklers turned on in the evenings (signaling the end of play as well), but the majority don't.
