With spring quickly approaching, your course is about to get busy. This means it’s a good time to take inventory of your golf course accessories, like rakes. You may find your course is ready for new bunker rakes. With lots of options out there, do you know the differences?

At Standard Golf, we offer a large variety of rakes to fit every situation and budget. Each of our five rakes has its own features, benefits and advantages. Additionally, you’ll find that our entire line of rakes has longer and wider heads than others on the market, giving you more coverage at less cost. Standard Golf also offers some of the lightest rakes available.

To ensure you choose the right tool for your bunkers, we’ve created a comparison matrix. You’ll find a detailed description of each rake, including:

  • The Chief: “Aussie Style” bunker maintenance.
  • Tour Pro: Move deep sanded bunker sand with ease.
  • Tour Smooth II: This second-generation rake smooths both fine and course sand.
  • Tour Lite: The lightest rake offered.

Sports venues are now being specced like IT projects

Sports venues are now being specced like IT projects

Athletic facilities are shifting planning from “lights and outlets” to connectivity, access control and data capture. Livestreaming, mobile entry and drones for field upkeep are now routine requirements. Athletic Business’ project reports, including a proposed $70 million Louisiana complex, show pipelines getting bigger, while Coach & Athletic Director says owners should evaluate technology needs up front.

  • 01If a venue plan includes livestreaming and recruitment video workflows, network capacity becomes an owner requirement, not a nice-to-have, according to Coach & Athletic Director.
  • 02Drone flyovers are moving from novelty to routine inspection tool, changing how turf and court maintenance is scheduled and documented, Coach & Athletic Director reported.
  • 03Public project pricing is becoming a benchmark for expectation-setting, Athletic Business reported a proposed $70 million sports complex tied to a $60 million bond proposal.

US Open’s million-plus crowd is pushing tennis into a data-ops business

Deloitte, citing USTA reporting, puts US Open attendance above 1 million, a scale that turns personalization into integration work. USTA Connect is formalizing a pipeline for evaluating startups during the tournament, while Sports Business Journal's awards coverage highlights tools from data platforms to accessibility tech.

  • 01Million-attendance events turn personalization into integration work: with more than 1 million at the US Open, a broken identity match or delayed inventory update becomes a nightly operations issue, not an edge case.
  • 02If fan personalization is the mandate, the procurement bottleneck shifts to identity, consent and data-sharing terms across ticketing, retail and media, not model accuracy.

Uefa is selling referee sleeve ads, and it changes how brands buy football

Uefa is selling referee sleeve ads, and it changes how brands buy football

Uefa is selling branding on referees’ sleeves, starting with workwear brand Strauss, according to SportBusiness. It puts the control point with the governing body rather than clubs. Match-day teams now own more production, compliance, and brand-safety work.

  • 01Referee kit becomes sellable inventory, which forces new governance on who approves marks, colors, and placement before matchday.
  • 02Because referees appear in every match and key moment, sleeve placements can deliver high-frequency exposure, but only if broadcast framing and graphics rules are negotiated up front.
  • 03The referee sleeve mark shifts the control point from clubs to the governing body: approvals, kit chain of custody, category-conflict rules, and broadcast measurement become the rights holder's and officiating operations' work on match day.
