Brown Ring Patch on Greens.

Many have probably noticed the yellow rings on a few greens on the course recently.  This is a fungal disease called Brown Ring Patch.  This disease infects the green primarily in the spring.  A spray application was made a week ago with not much control.  I have applied another application today in hopes it clears it up.  The disease is strictly aesthetic and has no effect on ball roll on the greens.  Once the disease is controlled with the fungicide spray applications, it will grow out of the disease in no time.
