Golf Inc. is pleased to announce the winners of its annual Renovation of the Year contest. Once again, in what’s becoming a familiar theme, the entries were top-notch — both bold and imaginative — as architects and contractors continue to do the amazing with renovations.
As one judge, Oscar Rodriguez, president of O&J Construction Inc., noted: “It was difficult this time around to select the top picks. Different projects achieved so much success in so many ways. I had a lot of fun and stress at the same time.”
This year, Golf Inc. is honoring nine renovations: the top three private and public ones costing more than $1 million and three others that were done for less than $1 million.
In addition to the level of competition increasing, another trend is foreign courses earning recognition. Courses in China, England and Mexico were among this year’s winners.
The winners are listed in alphabetical order. The order of finish will be announced in our Summer issue.

Blue Monster at Trump, Miami, Fla.
