I worked on a golf course for two years when I was young. It’s really not that hard to repair. You just cut out the damaged sod, fill in the ruts with fine soil and sand, and put new sod on top.

From the video snippet in the thread, there may not be all that much damage on the fairway. The greens and tees, on the other hand........

But you do have to buy the sod and someone with the skills has to replace the soil and cut place the sod.

There is also the law of opportunity cost. If you crew is fixing this damage they are not doing something else that needs doing. If they are using sod to fix this damage the sod is not being used to fix divots.

I would be willing to bet that some of these kids parents are members of this course, maybe live in homes backing up to the course.
