Subject field(s)
  • Golf
OBS

Where a hot climate does not favour grassy golf courses, brown dust "greens" or diamond dust "browns" can be found instead of close-cut grass greens, and plain earth fairways, even well groomed, remain rather rough for golfers to play on.

CONT

Although courses have brown dust "greens" and rough fairways, one can practise one's shots. (Ghana).

French

Domaine(s)
  • Golf
OBS

Là où le climat ne permet pas les terrains gazonnés, les verts sont faits d'une poussière brune compacte ou d'égrisé(e) (poudre de diamant), et les allées sont tant bien que mal aménagées à partir du sol que l'on retrouve sur place.

CONT

Bien que le terrain du club de golf municipal ait des «verts» de poussière brune compacte et des allées particulièrement difficiles, il est tout de même possible d'y améliorer sa technique.
