  • Bankrupt Golf Courses: an Historical Analysis And
    BANKRUPT GOLF COURSES: AN HISTORICAL ANALYSIS AND STRATEGIES FOR REPURPOSING by BLAKE JEFFREY CONANT (Under the Direction of Ron Sawhill) ABSTRACT More than 800 golf courses have closed since 2003 and approximately 1,000 to 2,500 are projected to close in the next decade. Many of these courses are repurposed as high-end mixed-use development, high-density residential, or big-box development. The sustainable benefits the golf course once provided either diminish or leave completely. As our countryʼs 21st Century needs shift towards food, water, and energy security, bankrupt golf courses can offer repurposing opportunities to plan for those needs. The goal of golf course repurposing should be to provide similar or greater sustainable benefits as the golf course once did. Understanding how that land can be sustainably repurposed is vital for local communities, environments, and economies to thrive in the 21st Century. This thesis will offer suggestions, strategies, and solutions for repurposing bankrupt golf courses that have yet to be implemented in the United States.

  • Division I Men's Golf Championships Records Book
    DIVISION I MEN’S GOLF CHAMPIONSHIPS RECORDS BOOK 2017 Championship 2 History 5 All-Time Team Results 14 Individual Awards 36 2017 CHAMPIONSHIP HIGHLIGHTS Oklahoma crowned 2017 Division I men's golf national champions. In its first ever NCAA men’s golf match play national championship appearance, Oklahoma won its second national championship in program history with a 3-1-1 victory over defending champion Oregon at Rich Harvest Farms. “I had a good feeling (this) week. My wife and I had talked about this before we went to regionals that we aren’t the best putting team and at regionals, you got to be able to do somethings at the right time to advance through,” Sooners coach Ryan Hybl said. “I told her I was hoping that this group was going to get a chance to shine. If they had an opportunity this week, they were going to do something crazy good. “This has been our best individual year. We had five individual winners, which not a lot of teams can say. The firepower was there.” Oklahoma’s championship was its first since 1989 at Oak Tree Country Club in Edmonds, Oklahoma, a championship co-hosted with rival Oklahoma St.. The Sooners lost in the quarterfinal round of the 2016 NCAA Men’s Golf Championship. Blaine Hale put the first point on the board, downing Oregon’s Norman Xiong 4&3 as he sank a birdie putt on the 15th green. Xiong had the early momentum in the match, winning the first hole and the early one-up advantage.

  • Taking It All in Bandon Preserve
    Taking it All In Bandon Preserve Written Contributions and Photos by Jeffrey Stein Feb 26, 2011 Just when you thought it couldn’t get any better, Bandon Dunes Golf Resort, the burgeoning destination on the Oregon coast, is poised to make another splash. Resort owner Mike Keiser brought in Bill Coore and Dave Zinkand, of the Coore & Crenshaw design team, to route a par-three golf course over 27 acres (part of the 250-acre H.L. McKee Preserve) adjacent to their earlier work at Bandon Trails (which opened in 2005). The thirteen-hole track [pending ​ Keiser’s approval--a thirteenth hole was found in the lowest and westernmost part of the property, facing north] ​ takes advantage of all wind directions as it heads out southwest, using the existing practice green as its first hole. The golfer continues to a promontory on the fifth tee that overlooks many sharp sandy peaks and valleys. Holes five through ten never face the same wind direction consecutively as the golf course curls in on itself for half of the round. Finally, the Preserve un-twists to the northeast and finishes in a natural hollow near the existing Bandon Trails clubhouse. The Double Green at the Preserve during Grow in The Bandon Preserve features an archipelago of tees and greens, islands of native red fescue grass floating seamlessly in the expanse of Bandon’s coastal dunescape. Both tees and greens are projected to average 6,500 square feet. When final dimensions are set for all playing surfaces, less than ten acres of turf will be maintained by resort staff.

  • Chicago Golf Club
    INFORMATION FOR GUESTS Historical Notes The Chicago Golf Club was founded in 1892 by Charles Blair Macdonald and other prominent Chicagoans who wanted to play the game they had experienced during their travels to Scotland. The USGA recognizes the original course they built in Belmont (now Downers Grove) as the first 18-hole course in the United States. In 1895, Chicago Golf opened Macdonald’s new course, built on more spacious land that the Club had acquired in Wheaton. Macdonald, who also became the first U.S. Amateur Champion, wanted the course built in keeping with the style and tradition of the great courses in Britain. Macdonald’s belief that trees were not an appropriate hazard opened great vistas across the course and subjected play to the vagaries of the wind. Macdonald evolved this style over the next quarter century as he became the first golf course architect of renown in the U.S. At Macdonald’s suggestion, Chicago Golf was redesigned by his protégé Seth Raynor, with the new course opening in 1923. Chicago Golf’s 21st century course is still Raynor’s original design. The “modern” course features several prototype Macdonald/Raynor holes that are considered among their best – the “Road Hole” 2nd, the “Biarritz” 3rd, the “Redan” 7th, “Punchbowl” 12th were modeled on the great holes in European golf, while the “Cape” 4th and 14th holes were based on an original Macdonald/Raynor design. James Foulis from St. Andrews, Scotland, was the Club’s first professional. An excellent player and clubmaker, Foulis won the second U.S.
