"The 2015 plan was me using considerable experience of studying Ross's drawings and restoring several dozens of other Ross courses – I bunkered the course on the 1915 plans and on the ground based primarily on instinct...What I observed in the day or so after my return following the derecho was that even though most of the architectural features, in particular the bunkers, were still in place, the scale of the bunkering was that it no longer had the proper visual impact on players." - Ron Prichard

"Immediately after the 2023 Tour Championship, Green set to work on reimagining East Lake using as inspiration a previously unknown aerial photo from 1949 before any renovations were made to Ross’ design.
