Groundsman Destroys Golf Course Fairways With Weed Killer

A golf club's
fairways were turned brown after the groundsman
accidentally watered the course with industrial
strength weed
killer.Fairways are usually sprayed with a light weed killer, but last month the turf was thoroughly watered with an industrial-strength solution.
The normally lush fairways have been scorched away after the groundsman sprayed them with a chemical usually used to destroy grass growing through pavements and roads.
A total of 11 holes have been ruined at Haywards Heath Golf Club in West Sussex, and will remain rusty brown for months to come.
Many members, who pay £1,100 a year, fear that prolonged rain could turn them to mud.
