There was a surge tide last night that broke through the sea walls on Hazelwood marshes and flooded the river course to levels close to those of the December storm surge. Unfortunately the timing could not be much worse with work being completed on the turfing around the 3rd green just yesterday. We will salvage what we can but it is likely that much of the turf will be ruined by the salt water. Most of the new green remained above the water level and should survive and the 4th tee was only just covered. We intend to run the irrigation on the green and tee tomorrow in an attempt to flush through the salt.
