Why nobody will mow the fairways at this week’s PGA Tour event
This week’s inaugural Black Desert Championship in Utah won't feature a small army of pre-dawn turf tenders cutting fairways, or lawn jockeys perfecting cross stripes, skip rows, circle cuts, 50-50 or push-and-pull patterns. In fact, nobody will be doing any fairway mowing—it will be the first time fully automated electric machines will mow a PGA Tour course.
