Build a new rear tee that fills the space along the high point
Consider the realignment of the bridge to allow for the most versatile tee space on # 18 and # 11 - while reducing the impact on # 17
Create a series of tees on the space vacated by the existing path and bridge
Locate a series of forward tees moving shorter from the existing to provide greater options
Push the tree line back on the left and arrange a series of hummocks at the long distance - giving those players more to consider from the tee
Rework the cross bunker and drape fairway over the high point connecting to the left side of the green - maintain rough turf on the slope that is the most severe
Remove the cart path from the left side of the green
Rework the putting surface to reclaim a wide range of hole locations lost to time - embrace the unique shape of the green that once dominated its presentation
