In an continuing effort to adjust to the current situation regarding the COVID-19 Virus, a few temporary adjustments have been made to golf procedures.  These are in place to maintain community safety while continuing to offer the ability to utilize the golf courses here at SaddleBrooke One. 

• An adjustment has been made to the cups on the greens. We have added a piece of pvc pipe to the bottom of the cup. The pvc pipe will keep golf balls toward the top of the cup. This will allow golfers to retrieve their ball without having to touch the flag stick, as well as reaching their whole hand inside the cup. With this in place we encourage golfers to leave the pin in at all times to ensure everyone's safety.
  

PVC Pipe shown in cup

1. Mark the ball where it lies in the "disturbed" area of the bunker
2. Pick up the ball
3. Player may clean the ball
4. Player may then "place" the ball in an undisturbed or smooth part of the bunker, behind or adjacent to the original marked spot; No Closer To The Hole
5. Placement of the ball must remain in the bunker; may not change playing surfaces (placed on grass is not allowed)
6. Ball is now in play; No Penalty Free Relief
