coURSE REpoRt u u u the players course hosted the annual Indian Wells Pro-Am the first week of February, where 30-plus local PGA professionals and guests battled the challenging layout. The event allowed us to showcase the non-over- seeded rough and enhanced landscaping areas, all the while focusing on the remarkable playing con- ditions. The tournament was also a great opportu- nity for us to display our wonderful facility and course to our peers and guests alike. u u u the celebrity course is in seasonal form. The track is playing perfectly, and we are beginning to see some color splashes appearing in the wildflower areas. The blossoming will be a little later than normal this year as we purposely seeded those areas later to reduce weeds. With the rain and weather we've been having, we are expecting some amazing color and flowers in those areas very shortly. u u u Did you know that the total number of sand traps on both golf courses is 179? There are 102 on Celebrity and 77 on Players. Can you name the only hole that doesn't have a single sand trap? We do have a few sand trap targets on the driving range and one practice sand trap near the back of the range. Tune in next month for some more IWGR tidbits, and remember … fairways and greens! ....................................................................................................................... > cLick hERE to book tee times on the Players and Celebrity courses.
