For the annual Spring Trip for the winter season golfers who couldn't play in the winter:
Founders Group International, Myrtle Beach National’s parent company, has selected Brandon Johnson Golf Course Design to oversee the project on the Arnold Palmer-designed course. Owner Brandon Johnson worked for Arnold Palmer Golf Design for more than 17 years and will carry out a renovation project that maintains the original design vision while modernizing the course, which was last updated in 1996.

What in the world does this mean "will carry out a renovation project that maintains the original design vision while modernising the course?"

I would imagine "modernizing the course" means Brandon Johnson will deliver meaningful improvements, including possibly some serious design changes, where he sees fit.  "Maintains the original design vision" is likely just included out of respect to Arnold Palmer.  Brandon has delivered previously at other APD courses such as Old Tabby Links on Spring Island and Wexford on Hilton Head Island.
