DELRAY BEACH, FLORIDA, UNITED STATES, March 26, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ — The Seagate Golf Club in Delray Beach Opens all 18 Holes of $14.5M Golf Course Redesign and Received Course Rating of 73.1 with Slope Rating of 134
Architect Drew Rogers oversaw renovations for the Championship 18-Hole, Joe Lee Course; the “back nine” opened in December and the “front nine” now open with all 18 holes ready for play
The Seagate Golf Club, a world-class golf and country club featuring one of the best championship golf courses in Palm Beach County, has opened its front nine holes, with all 18 holes now accessible. The Seagate unveiled the renovation in December, at which point the back nine holes were open for play. The course has recently been rated 73.1 with a Slope Rating of 134.
World renowned architect J. Drew Rogers oversaw the renovation to the Joe Lee designed 18-hole championship golf course and practice facilities.

The 18-hole championship course winds through 120 acres of Bimini Bermuda grass and tree-lined fairways, while the impressive practice facility offers a fully outfitted driving range, pitching and bunker areas, and staff of PGA professionals. The course closed in April 2023 allowing for the full renovation of the course. The transformation served to heighten the gameplay of each hole and, in some instances, resulted in complete redesigns. Enhanced gameplay has been delivered with fully integrated improvements to the greens, fairways, tees, bunkers, irrigation, drainage, turfgrasses, landscaping, as well as the driving range and practice facilities.
“Our members are thrilled with the new course, finding it both challenging and user friendly,” said Alex Schnoeller, Managing Director of The Seagate. “We are now recognized as one of the best golf courses in the region and are thrilled to provide our members with this new, world-class experience.”
The Seagate’s Director of Agronomy Alan Fike said, “Our architect carefully analyzed the course and designed the plans for the full renovation of the entirety of our golf facilities. Throughout the renovation, I was on the course each day ensuring that the myriad of intricate design details were executed to plan. We know our members will be very pleased with the results.”
The Seagate also renovated its 41,064 square foot Golf Clubhouse which includes a dining room that serves lunch, brunch, and dinner with both indoor and outdoor seating, as well as a Grand Ballroom, Dining Room, Grille Room, and Courtyard. The Clubhouse renovation included architectural finishes in the lobby, meeting rooms and event spaces, locker rooms, corridors, and the outdoor patio.
The new design is inspired by the serene and tailored aesthetic of the Clubhouse and history of the greater Palm Beach area. Historic colorways and jute wallcovering in the architecture paired with soft neutrals and sage greens in the upholstery define the relaxed color palette of the refreshed space. Touches include leather tufted couches in intimate seating areas, a custom reception desk detailed in burl wood and accented with a leather top, and new brass glowing alabaster light fixtures. The Clubhouse also contains a new curated art collection displayed throughout blending a mixture of painterly abstract pieces with vintage photos by Slim Aarons of Palm Beach and the surrounding area. In a relaxed nod to Hollywood regency glamour, the patio showcases marble dining tables and rattan furniture on the patio.
