Mourning Wood

Team USA Solheim Cup captain Beth Daniel printed three signs to hang on the wall of the American team room this week at Rich Harvest Farms, three signs containing inspirational quotes. Christina Kim posted pics of each quote on Twitter:







Yeah, fine. Do you see the problem? Wood paneling!

Seriously, wood paneling? At Rich Harvest Farms? In the team room? Presumably this is not the tool shed out behind the cart barn that Team USA is using for a team room. Presumably this is a room at Rich Harvest Farms that the host course considers a great room.

And yet, it has wood paneling. And not mountain lodge wood paneling, but split-level-ranch, Brady-Bunch-house, 1970s wood paneling. Daniel should find some shag and break out the fondue pots.

Been a guest at the Farms many times. Trust me, there is nothing crappy about it. I would question the lameness of those quotes and why they are on the walls, rather than the quality of their quarters.

If you look at the pics on the Solheim Cup Facebook page, with windows on both sides of a long narrow room, it seems like a trailer to me, same for the team dining room.

Anyone who knows anything about large golf tournaments knows that team rooms are always trailers rented for the event. At Rich Harvest Farms they had 3 trailers side by side. I guess i can't blame you though for knocking the host course because you more than likely were unable to ever visit this amazing place.
