In addition to restoring the Ross eighteen, Mandell will improve drainage throughout the site, which would often flood. He will also widen fairways, regrade rough areas, rebuild tee complexes and rebuild bunkers. Mandell plans to restore the greens and original variety and visual interest of the eighteen Ross holes. Over the past decade, the number of rounds played at the facility had declined and course conditions were gradually deteriorating, prompting city officials to reconsider their options. The original eighteen holes constructed on the site (now the back nines of the two main courses) were designed by Donald Ross in 1925. The municipal facility currently has two eighteens – the 6,000-yard American course and 6,700-yard British course – and a nine-hole layout. Ground has been broken on Richard Mandell’s renovation of the municipal Bobby Jones Golf Club in Sarasota, Florida, which will involve the restoration of the club’s eighteen Donald Ross holes, an adjustable short layout and updated practice facilities, and the creation of a nature park.
