Michigan Golf Course recovering after vandalism as cops investigate
The grounds crew at UM Golf Course repaired all 18 greens, closing them a few at a time.
The University of Michigan Golf Course is making a remarkable recovery after a recent act of vandalism left 18 greens discolored. According to prosecutors, vandals allegedly damaged the greens in mid-July, forcing the grounds crew to resod the collars on all holes. The course temporarily closed the affected greens, one at a time, as they underwent restoration.
In a statement, UM Golf Course expressed gratitude for the hard work and determination of their team, noting that progress has been made in restoring the greens to their original sizes. The course, designed by Alister MacKenzie in the 1920s and opening in 1931, is considered one of the top public golf courses in Washtenaw County.
It features an 18th hole with a picturesque view of Michigan Stadium across Stadium Boulevard. The university's police department continues to investigate the incident, urging anyone with information to contact them at (734) 763-1131.
