Beg, borrow, steal to get close to a member to play this track! I was lucky enough to get on as a guest for marshalling the LPGA Samsung World Championship. It is so perfect the fairways and rough look like Astroturf. Not a mark on them! No weeds! No "odd" grass! The scenery is fantastic. I have one hole on my laptop as wallpaper!
