Alex Elias BEST NEW COURSE  The Lido Rome, Wisconsin The Lido Golf Club was designed by C.B. Macdonald on the shores of Long Island in 1914 and featured many of Macdonald's famed templates such as the Alps, Redan, and Edan. It was considered one of the best in the country and in the same company as Pine Valley and National Golf Links of America. Falling into disrepair, beginning with the crash of 1929, the United States Navy eventually acquired the property and destroyed the course to construct a naval base, in 1942, during World War II. Now, thanks to the Keiser brothers, Michael and Chris, and architects Tom Doak and Brian Schneider, The Lido has been resurrected at Sand Valley, 1,000 miles from it's original location. BEST NEW RESTORATION  Lookout Mountain Club
Lookout Mountain, Georgia Designed by renowned architect Seth Raynor in 1925, Raynor's design was never finished because of his death in 1926 before construction began and budget constraints. For decades, Lookout Mountain has been viewed as one of the most anticipated restorations. Restored by architects Tyler Rae and Kyle Franz, Raynor's vision and templates have finally come to fruition.
