Project Notes
Reconstruction of 184 bunkers, restoring/re-floating/regrassing of the greens, rebuilding of all tees, renovation of practice areas. Over a three-year period, putting surfaces were restored to their former sizes, close-cut chipping areas were developed, fairways were redefined, tees and bunkers were completely reconstructed.
Many say Seminole is Donald Ross’s best design — even better than Pinehurst No. 2. When the Club decided to restore its magnificent self, “I was honored to be involved,” Silva recalls. “And I was also nervously spastic the entire time the project was underway.”
