Frost delays lowered play at Tucson golf coursesΒ 

OB Sports, the operating arm of Tucson City Golf’s five courses, was jolted by about 70 maddening frost delays during January and February, lowering overall play from 2014 and 2015 by about 1 percent. It stopped the momentum built since OB Sports took over two years ago. It meant that many golfers with a 10 a.m., tee time on a sunny winter day didn’t get to tee off until almost noon. Many went home. Nevertheless, OB Sports projects it will net close to $65,000 this year.
