Project at the West Course is on track as it prepares to host the 2018 CIMB Classic.
Since November, renovation works to re-surface all the greens on the TPC Kuala Lumpur’s West Course with TifEagle Bermuda grass, and fairways and tee boxes with ‘Celebration’ Bermuda grass have progressed as planned. Both grasses used are identical to those at TPC Sawgrass, home to THE PLAYERS Championship, which is the PGA TOUR’s annual flagship tournament in the United States.
“All 18 West greens were successfully re-turfed in mid-March and are now in the growing-in phase while the re-turfing exercise on six remaining tee boxes and six fairways will be completed by the end of May, proceeded by a three-month growing-in period,” said TPC Kuala Lumpur Head of Agronomy, Mohd Nizam Othman.
