Heavy rainstorms have been softening the turf courses for weeks.

P.S. Three other Joe E. Lewis bon mots ...
1. "Any man who can lay down on the floor without hanging on ... isn't drunk."
2. When a waiter brought him a glass of water ... "Hey, pal ... I said I was thirsty ... not dirty."
3. When asked if he had ever met royalty ... "No ... but I once shook hands with Count Basie."
