Troon has been selected to manage three Southern California golf courses owned by Garden Grove-based Sanyo Foods Corporation of America, including Yorba Linda Country Club in Yorba Linda, Lomas Santa Fe Country Club in Solana Beach, and Tustin Ranch Golf Club in Tustin.
Troon Privé, the private club operating division of Troon, will oversee operations of Yorba Linda Country Club and Lomas Santa Fe Country Club, while Troon Golf, the resort and daily-fee club operations division of Troon, will manage all operations at Tustin Ranch Golf Club.
“Troon’s proven track record of providing lifestyle excellence and operational effectiveness, along with the company’s focus on member and guest satisfaction, are ultimately what led us to select Troon to manage our three clubs,” said Nobu Taira, general manager, Sanyo Foods Corporation of America. “Partnering with Troon will ensure our investments are protected and our member and guest experiences are best in class.”
Yorba Linda Country Club is set in the rolling hills of North Orange County, not far from the Richard Nixon Presidential Library & Museum. The club’s Harold Rainville-designed course opened for play in 1957, plays to a par of 71 and measures 6,834 yards. The golf practice facility includes a practice range, a large putting green and a short-game practice area. Located 20 miles north of San Diego, Lomas Santa Fe Country Club features a William Bell-designed par-72 layout with sweeping ocean views and wide fairways. Tustin Ranch Golf Club features a signature Ted Robinson-designed golf course and a spectacular clubhouse. The 6,842-yard, par-72, 160-acre course is the centerpiece of the Tustin Ranch community.
“We are thrilled to be working with Sanyo Foods and with three well-regarded facilities,” said Troon operations SVP Jim Richerson, PGA. “Our agronomy teams are eager to improve conditions at each course, while our operations teams will immediately seek to elevate service standards and the member/guest experiences.”
