Changes to Evian course
This year’s Evian Masters will display Part I of a two-year plan to transform the Evian Masters course. Work began in September 2011 on the tees and irrigation system and altered some holes and will continue in mid-September when the course closes for the remainder of the work with a scheduled completion in July 2013. Three international architects, Jeremy Slessor (Great Britain), Dave Sampson (South Africa) and Steve Smyers (United States), are leading the redesign effort.
Here are some of the changes for this week’s event:
No. 1: The tee has been moved back and some trees removed to open up the tee shot a bit more.
No. 2: The tee has been moved back to gain a bigger view of the entire green.
No. 9: This long par 5 is now even longer.
No. 14: This hole has been lengthened but the “bowl” in front of the green has been retained.

We have to give credit to whoever selected Michelle's pairing............I guess we know which pairing will get the largest gallery..........and it gives Michelle an incentive to shoot even better scores..........
