Golf courses across the country including Door County are sinking their putts when it comes to hosting a successful season this year. Golf is providing people with a way to socialize while still being able to stay socially distant. Even with some COVID-19 precautions still taking place like spaced out tee times and extra cart rentals, places like Idlewild Golf Course near Sturgeon Bay are seeing an increase in play. General Manager Brandon Hansen says the weather has helped out a lot.

Hansen credited his grounds crew for helping keep the course in great shape and for addressing drainage issues that caused it to be wetter than other places in the past. Golf is also playing well indoors as well with television ratings hitting its highest levels in the past five years.
