When did golf became all about vivid green courses - I'm afraid I don't know my golf course history. Was it when golf started being televised in color or when more resort courses started being built?

I would say the beauty of Augusta had a lot to do with it once the tournament was televised in color. Prior to that, the courses didn't look that good. Augusta set the bar for what a course should look like and it has grown from there.
