I was fortunate enough to attend this year’s Masters for the Monday practice round While walking the course, I saw the regular players like Tiger, Rory and Fred Couples to name a few I happened to be on the first tee when Taylor Moore who played in The Rex Hospital Open at WP teed off Next, I ran into J T Poston who also played in a few RHO’s Later that week, while back at home, I was thinking about the last twenty years of the tournaments that I was involved with at WP One thing I came across was the results from the 2014 RHO While Byron Smith won, Harold Varnerfinished2nd.TonyFinaufinished4thandMaxHomaandJustinThomasfinishedtiedfor11th.Varner,Finau, HomaandThomasaresomeofthebiggestnamesingolfandwehadtheopportunitytoseethembeforetheymade a name for themselves.

MichaelThomas,GeneralManagerBALLMARKREPAIR:IT’SYOUROBLIGATION
In the USGA Rules of Golf under the etiquette section there is a section titled Repair of Divots, Ball-Marks and DamagebyShoesanditstates:
“Players should carefully repair any divot holes made by them and any damage to the putting green made by the impact of a ball (whether or not made by the player himself). On completion of the hole by all players in the group, damagetotheputtinggreencausedbygolfshoesshouldberepaired”
It is every player’s obligation to help take care of the golf courses they play Repairing ball marks and taking care in how we walk on the greens is the number one way that golfers can help keep the greens they play on smooth and healthy Whenwemakeaballmarkweshouldallbeexcitedbecauseitmeanswehitthegreen Nowwehavetofind that ball mark and fix it And if we have time and we are not holding others up in the fairway, we should find and fix onemore.StudiesfromtheGolfCourseSuperintendentsAssociationofAmerica,(GCSAA)haveshownthatittakesa player5secondstofixafreshballmark Afreshlyrepairedballmarkwillhealin24hourswhereasaballmarkleftunrepairedforonehourwilltake 15 days before the ugly scar has satisfactorily healed. It also shows that a ball mark not fixed properly will take just as long to heal as one that hasn’tbeenfixedatall
It’s every golfer’s obligation to the game to learn how to properly fix a ball mark. It’s important for the health of the greens, and for smooth rolling putts It also shows respect for our fellow golfers that we are trying to leave the putting surface as smooth as we found it Always remember this whenrepairingballmarks–pushyourballmarksbacktowardthecenter;donotliftortwistharshly.

IthoughtImightmentionsomeremindersaboutsafelyworkingoutinthesummer.Astheweathergetswarmer remember to add some extra water to your workouts to stay hydrated. Adding some electrolytes might be a good idea, also. Enjoy water-rich foods such as watermelon, crisp lettuce, grapefruit, broccoli and tomatoes. Wear light, sweat-wicking clothing and don't forget your sunscreen. A wide-brimmed hat is helpful along with UV-blockingsunglasses.
Another great thing to add in the warm months is a cold shower before your workout! It might surprise you to see the benefits such as weight lossandbetterhearthealth.
And remember, your body cools itself by sweating, but cooling down is harder in humid weather because perspiration doesn't evaporate as quicklyfromyourskin.Ifyounoticethatyouarenotsweatingeventhoughyouareworkingouthard,seekshadeandcooldown.
