By mid-March 2024, the course underwent greens renovation, replacing the cool-weather Bent grass with the warm-weather Prizm Zoysia. During this period, the Golf Department closed the entire course to ensure uninterrupted work.
Additionally, a new driving range tee was introduced and opened on Monday, July 15, 2024. The practice tee has been moved approximately 40 yards back to allow golfers to hit woods and drivers over longer distances.
One of the less visible but crucial improvements includes the new drainage system installed under the renovated bunkers. This system ensures a more consistent sand surface, preventing standing water and washouts following rainfall.
