For those who are a little unsure on why on such a nice day we are closed, hopefully after reading this you may be a little more educated on why it's shut! This is a message to the members at Royal Birkdale

Temps sitting at 3 degrees, but because of a really keen frost from 4 o clock yesterday the course and especially the greens are still rock solid. Not going to come completely out of the profile today so I'm afraid the course is closed but the good news is temps are to stay above freezing I believe so good chance of play tomorrow.

Morning folks, course remains closed although temps have risen to 7 degrees but still a bone an inch into the profile.
