There's already a 2008 thread with the title of "The restoration of Wilshire Country Club," but I just heard Terry Gannon mention a new project that will prevent the club from hosting next year's LPGA tourney.
My first thought was "Didn't they just do a pretty successful restoration not that long ago?" but then a Google search unearthed a
comprehensive video to members with Kyle Phillips explaining that the previous work barely scratched the surface and there are additional infrastructure reinforcements needed.
The video linked above is 21 minutes, the main points being:
1. Reinforcing the barranca
2. New irrigation
3. Re-grassing the greens with bent grass to rid themselves of poa
4. De-treeing the playing corridors and moving trees to the perimeter of the property
I'm pretty sure there are a couple Wilshire members who post here. Would be interesting to hear any other details if they want to chime in. I had hoped to get out to the tourney this week but my schedule didn't allow.
