The biggest of the sinkholes started opening up last Friday morning near the practice range at Top of the Rock Golf Course in Missouri.
Devil Ball Golf reports that the club is working with engineers to figure out if more sinkholes are likely and the best way to solve the problem.
It could take up to two weeks to replace the sunk-in earth. The good news for the facility is that the sinkhole won’t impact tee times, but it does create a new hazard.
