After last weekend’s heavy rain, many Members will have seen “Lake Woollahra” in front of the 7th tee. Many may have thought that this shin deep pond was the runoff from the newly fixed 8th fairway and that the problems had been merely shifted from one hole to the other. But worry not! The big drain on the 7th was blocked with silt and debris from the course works on the 8th and 9th.
Once “Lake Woollahra” was emptied with a pump, the jet blasters were brought in, a lot of organic material was removed, and the drain is now unblocked. Happily, the 8th fairway was dry and playable by Sunday morning despite the Saturday night drenching, which is a huge improvement on its ability to recover.
