Vandals hit Torrey Pines course again
Posted: Tuesday May 20, 2008 10:38AM ET
For the second time in a month, the signature hole for next month's U.S. Open at Torrey Pines has been hit by vandals. In the latest incident early yesterday at the cliffside, par-3 third ??? the most photographed hole on the South Course ??? City Golf Manager Mark Woodward said workers arrived before dawn to find fresh footprints in the dew and heavy heel marks stamped into the surface of the green. Woodward said a two-word vulgarity was etched in the sand of one bunker, and that several sprinkler heads were broken off. The incident was reported to San Diego police and is being investigated.
