Default Fix this sentence

I'm helping a friend write a cover letter for a marketing job in the golf industry. It's pretty much all done, but one of her sentences is bad, but I don't know why.

[ QUOTE ]
I was very excited to hear of xxx's recent opening, and believe it to have a great deal of promise for becoming one of the state's premier courses.

[/ QUOTE ]

Oh and thanks:



edit- my friend is not one of these girls.

edit- rehosted

The recent opening of xxx is very exciting in that it shows a great deal of promise in becoming one of the state's premier golf courses.

I wish they had those. That would rock.

I just figured that I would make this thread a bit less useless to the general oot population.

Don't be an ass. No one wants to hear that some little [censored] thinks their course 'has promise'. Tell them it's good.
