Hello DP team. I believe playing on greens with frost can damage the surface/blades of grass. Therefore the officials will delay the start to insure this does not happen. Maybe a turf expect can back me up on this one. Love the show
Can’t believe you “experts” didn’t know about damaging the greens. You also proved you have video capability but don’t use it as much as you might on so many episodes when you discuss things that happen on the field, court, ice or whatever you’re trying to convey to your (video) customers……
Frost kills plants. Long grass is immune for the most part, but grass on the greens, tees, and fairways would be weak and would take damage if walked on after a frost.

Damages the grass.
It seems like they think that frost means the ground is frozen haha

They don’t want to risk damage to the greens!

You can't have dewy balls
The ground is frozen and could get damaged more than normal.
Imagine walking on a thin sheet of ice. It would crack. The grass is basically frozen ice so walking on it would crack and kill it.
