By Design - February 2019

INTRODUCTION F or the seventh annual ASGCA Design Excellence Recognition Program, 11 projects have been honored for their work with ASGCA members in addressing unique design challenges. These include practice facilities, short courses, renovations, complete redesigns and brand new golf courses. In each case, the work highlights the problem-solving skills required of today’s golf course designs, and the benefits that golf facilities yield as a result. As with previous years, the 2018 submissions were reviewed by a panel of golf industry leaders, including representatives of the Club Managers Association of America, Golf Course Builders Association of America and Golf Course Superintendents Association of America.
