2024
The 2022 AIG Women’s Open at Muirfield marked a historic event in golf, both for the tournament itself and its sustainability efforts. The championship made a significant move towards eco-friendly practices by utilising four Toro E-Triflex mowers on the greens for the week of the tournament. T
hese fully battery-powered mowers not only eliminated the risk of oil leaks but also reduced carbon emissions and noise pollution. The switch to electric mowers provided several environmental benefits, including lower energy consumption and improved air quality. Additionally, the reduction in noise pollution created a more peaceful environment for both golfers and wildlife.
