Quintero Golf Club, a public course in Peoria, Arizona, recently began a multi-million-dollar golf course renovation project. The four-month project began on June 2 and is expected to be completed by the end of September, with the fully-overseeded golf course reopening for play in October. Rees Jones, Quintero’s original course architect, is overseeing the course renovation and Total Turf is the contractor.
This summer’s course renovation marks the first major changes to the course since it opened in 2000. During the renovation crews will rebuild all 18 green complexes and resurface them with 007XL Bent grass. All tee boxes will be laser-leveled and resurfaced with new 419 Bermuda grass. All 65 bunkers will be renovated, receiving new drainage, new bunker liners, and will be filled with new Augusta white sand.
“We are so excited to have RJI and Total Turf involved in this project with the primary focus on making Quintero Golf Club even better than before,” Quintero Golf Club general manager Mike Poe said.
Quintero’s expansive practice facility will also be renovated during this summer’s closure, with the practice tee leveled and resurfaced, and the practice green rebuilt and resurfaced.
