DELBROOK GOLF COURSE
DELAVAN, WISCONSIN

David Gill/Steven Halberg Limited began work with the City of Delavan on the Delbrook Golf Course in May 1999. The assignment was to develop an additional 9-holes and a golf practice facility for the existing 18-hole golf course.

Delbrook Golf Course was originally constructed in the early 1900's as an eighteen hole public golf course. The original designer was Richard Foulis, a former U.S. Open Champion. The course has remained fairly intact since the early days, with some green renovations in the early 1990's and some bunkers from the original design being removed and sodded in.

Construction began on 13 new holes and the practice facility in August of 1999, with a target opening scheduled for the summer of 2001.

The new 27-hole layout will feature with 3-returning 9-hole circuits and a golf learning center with dual tees, each end of the range will feature practice facilities. The west end of the range will be utilized during afternoon and evening hours practicing with the sun to the players back, with the east end utilized as a practice and warm up facility for early morning players.

In addition to the new 13-holes the existing golf holes will be renovated with new expanded teeing areas, additional fairway bunkers, new cart paths, and an entirely new automated irrigation system with computer central control.
