Just read the sad news of the sudden passing of Andy Cole from iTurf. Genuinely a lovely guy. My and all of Devonshire Park send thoughts and love to his family, friends and colleagues. 🙏

Another hard & long day, but the Courts performed so well again for the #LexusOpen Finished with a good clean, hoover, cut and cooldown before covering for the semis tomorrow. The plant thrives hiding the signs of stress so well. Massive thanks to the team! #DevonshirePark 😀🤙

From sun, tennis, & more sun (and rain on the way!), today was a cracker at the Lexus Open Eastbourne! 🎾Brilliant games today, and finished by the team who honestly smashed it with some serious hard work for tomorrow’s play. Big thanks to all! 😀🤙#LexusOpen #EastbourneTennis

Historically Tuesday was ladies day here so I celebrate women in sport & say thanks to these incredible individuals who are part of my team for the Lexus Open 2025🌟 from court testing to set up and court services their passion and skill is an inspiration. Genuinely awesome! 😀🤙

As we kick off Day 1 of the combined WTA & ATP 250 at Devonshire Park, I can’t understate the amount of hard work that has gone into this. A huge THANK YOU to my amazing team! What a stonking bunch, and thanks for putting up with me! 😄🤙 #EastbourneTennis #TeamEffort #Grateful

Short gap before the next weather front moves in! 🌧️ Very limited renovations last year mean the plant is turning chlorotic, all out aeration followed with a light spray of gibberellic acid & cytokinins (seaweed and bio stimulants), and locking it in with a wetting agent! 😀🤙

Soak it up you little beauties!…. 😀 So good to see the sun out and can’t begin to tell the battles that have taken place just to get to this point on three courts! Great light levels and high (ish) soil temps make it look easy. Stonking work from my gang 💪.. 😀🤙

Devonshire Park turned 150 years old on the 1st July. Today marks the official opening day by the Duke of Devonshire. It is nothing but an honour to be leading a team that ensures the legacy continues. 😀🤙 (photo Kate Green).

The calm before the storm! 😀 Unbelievable work from the team in this years build up. So many hours of hard, hard work and planning to ensure we hit the targets. I am so proud of you guys 💪👏 Thank you! 😀🤙

Many thanks to all sponsors, organisers and hosts that made 2022 Turf Summit a truly wonderful opportunity. I am forever grateful to all the delegates that make me feel welcome 🙏 ⁦@TurfBusiness⁩ ⁦ 😀🤙

Very symbolic to take this, this morning. Finished the Ladies 35s Premiere County Finals on 23 grass courts to come home just in time to see England win!!💥…wow, what a day for all women involved in sport 👏👏clearly a very tough journey, yet very well deserved 😀🤙

Thank you everyone for taking the time to reach out and wish the team well. It’s hard to explain what level of planning, blood sweat n tears go into producing a playing surface. Every year gives new challenges and this year didn’t ease up. Much love to my team 😀🤙

Another fantastic day here at Devonshire Park for the #rothesayinternational cracking draw!!! Many thanks to my boys for all their hard work 👏

Just wanted to say thank you @AndrewNorman76⁩ for organising a great event hosted at East Sussex National. So proud to share the day with great people and truly honoured to have had an opportunity help raise awareness in our industry on a deeply meaningful subject 🙏 😀🤙
