The renovations have started on Hole 13, as you can see from the design below the renovation includes, tree removal, tee construction, added fairway bunkers and cart path shifting.

With the consultation of Golf Course Architect Tim Liddy. Course Crafters LLC and The Hyde Park grounds staff we will be completing the above work over a six week period. During this project, hole closings may occur due to safety issues associated with some of the work.
