We’re pleased to welcome back Brian Slawnik from Renaissance Golf Design to The Royal Adelaide Golf Club. Brian is working alongside @ragcgreens Links team to deliver major improvements to the 17th hole and 18th tee block.

The team is working hard and we can’t wait to show you the finished holes — they’re going to look fantastic!

🚜 Course Renovations Underway 🌱

This week our Links team is hard at work carrying out the annual renovations at Royal Adelaide. From scarifying fairways and hollow tyning the green surrounds, to refreshing tees and giving the greens a light dusting – every step plays an important role in keeping the course in top condition year-round.

At least nine holes remain in play each day, and our team is working carefully to minimise disruption to golf while ensuring long-term benefits for the course.

A big thank you to our members for your patience and support while the works are underway 👏
