Course Maintenance
In October, we successfully completed the installation of new drainage and fresh new turf on the fairways of both Hole 3 and Hole 17, addressing the long-standing wet area issues. In November we continue our improvement plan by focusing on Fairways 17 and Hole 1 wet areas. This will conclude our upgrade schedule for 2023.
November Greens Maintenance Schedule:
- 1 & 2: Light Top Dressing with Sand
- 27 & 28: Light Top Dressing with Sand
- 13 & 14: Light Top Dressing and Verticut

Pace of Play
As we enter high season and the number of golfers continues to increase, the club wishes to emphasize the importance of maintaining a good pace of play. To ensure everyone’s golfing experience at Laguna is enjoyable for all golfers, we kindly request all members to adhere to the following recommendations:
- Play “ready golf “in a safe and reasonable manner.
- Be in position and ready to play when it’s your turn.
- Keep pre-shot routines to a maximum of 45 seconds and practice swings to a maximum of 2.
- Don’t mark every putt, go ahead and finish very short putts.
- Keep up with the group in front.
- Invite faster groups to play through.
- One golfer or group can back up an entire field, don’t let that be you or your group.
