Seeing a lot people going with MiniVerde. Sawgrass has it.

Ill be working with it this summer. Testing it's shade tolerance while its being established. I'd love to work at a course when I first graduate who is resurfacing or converting their greens. A second wave of bermudagrass is coming along from when it first came along 15 years ago.

As I have stated many times, those greens are money.

Bayou Desiard pulled their grass up and went with MiniVerde about 2 years ago. That shite is nice.

I noticed that the greens at TPC Louisiana looked very patchy at the Zurich. Looked like a lot of different colors of grass across one green --- dark green, light green, brown, etc. What causes that? Is that leftover from freeze temperatures carrying a little later into the year this year than years prior?

You can tell in this pic from this year how varying the colors are on the green:
