College golf facilities: Vanderbilt opens renovated $11 million Vanderbilt Golf House

One of the best facilities in college golf recently finished a major upgrade.

The Vanderbilt Golf House recently opened after an $11 million renovation that also included work to other facilities at Vanderbilt Legends Club, where the men’s and women’s teams call home.

The new Vanderbilt Golf House increased the building’s size by nearly two-thirds. It includes a new lobby, hall of fame, team lounge, locker rooms, meeting rooms, fitness area, outdoor terraces and offices.

Additionally, there were renovations to the Cleo and Lewis Conner, Sr. Short Game Practice Facility and driving range tee boxes. The putting greens were enhanced with different types of grasses to better mirror playing conditions on competition courses.

The upgrades came thanks to seed gifts from alums Brandt Snedeker, Toby Wilt and Lew Conner and their families. The Golf House, Training Center and Conner Family Hitting Bays at Vanderbilt Legends Club were dedicated in 2013, and now the Golf House has taken the facility to another level.

Here’s a look at more college golf practice facilities.
