A large sinkhole was discovered at Glenview Championship Golf Course.
Villagers who live near the Glenview Championship Golf Course woke up Friday morning to find a very large, deep sinkhole in their backyard.

Golf course personnel closed six holes and roped off an area behind homes in the 3300 block of Richmond Drive in the Village of Belle Aire. There is said to be a second sinkhole in a nearby retention pond.

Sam Wartinbee of District Property Management on Friday said drought followed by sudden, heavy rain make conditions ripe for sinkholes to occur.
