Preserving the quality of the greens: a rational and sustainable approach at Golf Sainte Baume
In October 2025, Golf Sainte Baume decided not to carry out traditional aeration of the greens. Thanks to the mechanical interventions already carried out and a rigorous selection of materials, the greens are in excellent health, with deep roots and dense turf. Sudden drops in temperature could compromise conventional aeration, hence the decision to favor a gentle approach.
Instead, targeted scarification of 10 cm will be carried out to promote soil moisture, eliminate thatch, and stimulate healthy regrowth. This light intervention respects the course's ecosystem and is part of our sustainable and responsible management approach.
As a result, players will enjoy optimal, healthy, and consistent greens, while preserving the biodiversity and natural balance of Golf Sainte Baume.
