I buzzed up to Ft. Worth for a hearing yesterday and the golfers in the crowd were all talking about the EDS Byron Nelson Golf Tournament, which already has a less than inspiring field. Now, it turns out that several greens at the Tournament Players Course at Los Colinas are not going to be particularly picturesque on television:

One after another, competitors at the EDS Byron Nelson Championship struggled Monday to describe the patchwork greens that greeted them at the TPC Las Colinas course.
Riddled with bare patches and marked by evidence of multiple grasses growing on selected greens, the bumpy surfaces triggered a mea culpa from officials at the Four Seasons Resort, who own and oversee maintenance on both courses used at the Nelson tournament. [. . .]
Players who competed in Monday’s pro-am at the Cottonwood Valley course reported thin fairways on selected holes but praised the greens. Competitors at TPC, on the other hand, wondered if PGA Tour officials could find three viable pin placements during tournament week at selected holes.
