Overall Summary <strong>Of</strong> Recommendations<br />
Fairways<br />
<strong>The</strong> fairways widths were to be restored back towards Alison’s original concepts but additional<br />
bunkers were also proposed to maintain the challenge of the course for the elite players.<br />
Bunkers<br />
It was unanimously agreed that the bunkers were to be restored closer to Alison’s original<br />
concept in terms of their roughness and natural looking beauty. It was felt that this would<br />
make an extremely strong visual impact for the course and a real impression in the world of<br />
golf. <strong>The</strong> success of the bunker shaping was considered to be one of the most important aspects<br />
of the project. However, it was accepted that the restoration of the bunkers to their former style<br />
would probably result in a requirement for additional maintenance and that wash outs could<br />
be an issue when heavy rain is experienced.<br />
