TifEagle Going on all 9 PGA West Courses as
Part of Major Renovation

Whispering Pines Golf Club - Trinity, Texas

Every green has been rebuilt, with several also redesigned. Bunkers have been rebuilt, with some eliminated and others added. Tee boxes have been levelled and several new tees added. Williams originally designed the course as part of the Nicklaus Design team in 1998 for founder Corby Robertson Jr. “It’s always a challenge to take what many consider a masterpiece and make changes,” said Williams. “However, course design has changed over the past 20 years and Corby and I had been making a list of changes we’ve wanted to make for quite some time. I’m pleased with the result and know that golfers will find Whispering Pines even better than ever.”“While the new bunkers and tees are nice improvements, I believe the grass will be the most noticeable change for members and others who have played here,” said Williams. “The old 419 bermuda was simply worn out and it showed. Now, from tee through the green, it’s just beautiful.”Fairways and rough have been regrassed with Zeon Zoysia and greens with TifEagle bermuda. Construction began in December 2019 and was completed in the course’s off season.
