Superintendent Series: Jeff Stone on Preparing the Ocean Course for the PGA Championship
Jeff Stone has worked for the Kiawah Island Golf Resort since before the Ocean Course was built, and he has been the golf course superintendent at the Ocean Course since 2003. For this edition of the Superintendent Series, Jeff takes some time out of his hectic schedule to chat with Andy Johnson about getting the course ready for this week’s PGA Championship. They discuss the differences between resort and championship conditions, the Ocean Course’s transition from Bermudagrass to Paspalum, Jeff’s memories of Pete Dye, and whether it’s ever snowed on Kiawah Island.
The Superintendent Series is brought to you by the Toro Company.
