What happens when a golf club completely stops usi What happens when a golf club completely stops using fungicides over the winter? 🚫🍄 The result might surprise you.
With pesticide regulations tightening across Europe (including strict bans in Switzerland, France, and Belgium), the question for greenkeepers is no longer if chemical restrictions are coming, but when.

Michael Scheffold, Head Greenkeeper at GC Wörthsee (Germany), decided to do a real-world test run. This past winter, he completely dispensed with fungicides on his greens to see how they would react.

The verdict? Better than expected! Despite a little more snow mold, the greens recovered beautifully and by mid-May, they were almost as good as usual. 🌿

This success didn't happen by accident. It is the result of years of prioritizing Integrated Pest Management (IPM) and mechanical measures to build robust, naturally resilient soil and grass. Supported fully by Club Managing Director Sven Hilgenberg, GC Wörthsee is actively future-proofing its course.

Proactive greenkeeping beats waiting for the ban! 📈⛳️

🚨 What does Donald Trump's new ballroom have to do 🚨 What does Donald Trump's new ballroom have to do with the environmental problems of East Potomac Golf Links? 

A growing environmental controversy is unfolding at East Potomac Golf Links: according to reports by the New York Times and the U.S. National Park Service, thousands of cubic meters of soil and construction debris from the demolition work at the White House East Wing were deposited on the public golf course — including material reportedly contaminated with lead, chromium, pesticides, and other hazardous substances. 

The site is planned to become part of a future championship golf course redevelopment. Environmental groups and local residents, however, are raising serious concerns about potential impacts on ecosystems, waterways, and public access to one of Washington’s most historic municipal golf facilities. 

What makes the case especially sensitive: the golf course sits directly along the Potomac River and has long served as an accessible public space for golfers, walkers, and families alike. Critics warn the project could come at a high environmental and social cost. 

💬 The story is another reminder of how closely golf, urban development, and environmental responsibility are connected — and why transparency and sustainable land management matter for the future of the game.

Mauritius, the island in the Indian Ocean, is firs Mauritius, the island in the Indian Ocean, is first and foremost a dream destination for many golfers. For Philippe Espitalier-Noël, who, as CEO of the ER Group, is also responsible for major golf destinations such as Beachcomber and Heritage Resorts, among others, this dream destination is extreme pressure. A recent report by the World Bank Group on climate and development on the island of Mauritius entitled CCDR has prompted him to call for significant changes in the direction of tourism on the island.

Yes, the Masters Tournament and Augusta National G Yes, the Masters Tournament and Augusta National Golf Club are all about exclusivity. But it is important to realise that the whole town of Augusta has to agree with this concept and tradition. 

There is a huge economic value that comes with the tournament week, but there are other soft factors that secure the acceptance of The Masters in the town. 

The renovation of the municipal course at The Patch, plus the opening of The Loop at The Patch, is good news for the local community. Affordable, good golf is important to grow the game. Here, the Masters Charity Funds, First Tee of Augusta, and Augusta Technical College have teamed up to finance this important project.

Golf without the use of #pesticides? This is the s Golf without the use of #pesticides? This is the scenario the Swiss golfing community will face from January 2027. Due to a new classification of land use, the use of herbicides will be completely banned, whilst other plant protection products will be subject to much stricter regulations. 
The issue of #health protection is becoming increasingly important on sports grounds. This development is also relevant for golf courses in Germany and Austria. Here too, plant protection products are often the last resort in combating fungal diseases on greens.
We have talked to experts in Switzerland. The good news: some agronomists also see positive consequences arising from the regulation.

Another inspiring story of a woman in the golf ind Another inspiring story of a woman in the golf industry

“Getting up with the sunrise and getting going, I just love it” says Elin Foyle, 24-year-old Assistant Headgreenkeeper from Golf Club Chieming in Upper Bavaria, Germany. The 24-year-old is getting to know the world with her greenkeeping job: As one of the scholarship holders of the annual FEGGA program, she was allowed to work at the renowned Kristianstad’s Golf Club in Sweden for six months with six other scholarship holders.
At the DP World Tournament Betfred British Masters at The Belfry, she stood on the course early in the morning together with the other greenkeepers and prepared it for the tournament. Her next goal in the fall is the Solheim Cup at the Bernardus Golf Resort in the Netherlands.

Golf has no voice without data.📊⛳️ This was the w Golf has no voice without data.📊⛳️

This was the wake-up call at the recent @FEGGA (Federation of European Golf Greenkeepers Associations) General Assembly in Portugal. 

As the pressure from EU regulations on water usage and pesticide bans grows, the message for the industry is clear: We can no longer rely on "feeling" sustainable. We have to prove it.

Why does this matter for your club?
Policy Power: As Petra Himmel reports from FEGGA meeting, transparent data sets are the only way to persuade governments to grant exemptions or support.
Quality Control: Without chemical solutions for threats like *Dollar Spot*, data-driven greenkeeping is the only way to maintain the playing surfaces we love.
Social License: In a world competing for land and resources, golf must prove its added value to society—or risk losing its place.

At Golf Sustainable, we don’t just report the news; we analyze the strategies that will define the next decade of our sport. From the Dutch "Zero Pesticide" goal by 2032 to French resource management—we bring the global perspective to your screen.

How is your club handling the data challenge? Are you tracking every drop and gram, or is the transition to digital reporting still a hurdle? Let’s discuss in the comments! 👇

An important day for the golfing world, which will An important day for the golfing world, which will largely go unnoticed because research rarely has a big stage. Yesterday, the ITRI International Turfgrass Research Initiative, launched by STERF, USGA and R&A, officially kicked off with the first three projects on existential issues in golf: 

Why are these research topics existential? 
1️⃣ Clean Water is globally a shrinking resource. Golf courses have to reduce their consumption - and can reduce costs. There is no outdoor golf without water. 
2️⃣ If you want to keep golf a healthy sport, you have to combat dollar spot permanently without using fungicides or using only the absolute minimum. Those who lose the battle against dollar spot lose customers, members and market acceptance. Economic problems arise.
3️⃣ CO2 emissions are harmful to humanity, cause climate change, and thus create problems for golf. However, the question of how high the CO2 emissions of a golf course and its operation are cannot be answered because there is no standard calculation formula. The golf industry is unable to speak on CO2. This damages its image. A poor image is never good for business.

Golf journeys are wonderful - plan them in a consc Golf journeys are wonderful - plan them in a conscious way

1. “Staycation”: Consider regional alternatives. The carbon footprint is drastically reduced if the journey is short.  For long-distance destinations transportation often accounts for over 70%.

2. Rail instead of road or flight: Travelling by train and bus with large golf luggage is a hassle. However, many golf resorts now offer first-class rental clubs so that you can travel light. If you prefer to travel by car, the electric version is a good option. And if you’re not alone in the car, but have a passenger, you’re setting a positive example.

3. Rethinking luxury: The type of accommodation has a massive impact. An overnight stay in a 5-star hotel with a large spa generates CO2 emissions that can be up to six times higher than those of an overnight stay in a vacation apartment. 

4, If flying, then without detours: If a flight is unavoidable, consistently book direct flights. A large proportion of emissions is generated during take-off and landing. 

5. Effectively offsetting emissions. Offsetting is an important intermediate step in offsetting unavoidable emissions. Almost all flight providers now offer flight offsetting, as do many tour operators.

6, Choose sustainably certified resorts: When booking, look for certifications and the resort’s commitment. 

7. Optimising mobility on site: Rental cars (gasoline) make up between 2% and 15% of the balance on site. Check whether the resort offers shuttle services.

8. Acting consciously on site: You can also cut a good ecological figure on vacation if you opt for a plant-based diet or fill your own bottle with water instead of using disposable plastic bottles on site. But your footprint also depends on how you move around the golf course. Walking is the responsible – and healthy – alternative to using a cart.

9. No short trips by plane: Travel longer and less. 

10. Create awareness: Perfection is not the goal, but talking about conscious decisions is changing the industry. Those who talk about their vacation decisions become role models and create imitators.
