July 6, 2010










Pictures from this morning. A heavy dose of sunscreen around the feet burned the grass on court 8.

The hot weather is taking it's toll on the grass courts, but it is also a challenge on the clay courts. Pictured: The grit/topdressing being spread evenly. With so much play (8 am - dusk) clay courts 1-8 frequently need major tune-ups. As in maintaining grass courts, water management is critical in keeping the courts in top shape. Jose cleaning the lines on the teaching courts for their 6:30am open.
