NASHVILLE, Tenn. – Vanderbilt Athletics and the National Commodore Club are excited to present the new Vanderbilt Golf House at Vanderbilt Legends Club. The renovations are part of Vandy United, a transformative investment in student-athletes and athletics programs.
The Vanderbilt Golf House renovations mark the first completed Vandy United project, welcoming a new era of opportunity for Vanderbilt golf student-athletes and alumni. The substantial upgrades to men’s and women’s golf teams’ facilities at the Vanderbilt Legends Club reaffirm its longstanding commitment to the home that has helped Commodores grow into SEC and NCAA champions.
The renovations to the Vanderbilt Golf House increase the building’s footprint by roughly two-thirds. The space features a new lobby, hall of fame, team lounge, locker rooms, meeting rooms, fitness area, outdoor terrace, and offices.
The facility investments also fuel Vanderbilt’s Dare to Grow campaign, which has revolutionized Vanderbilt Athletics with pathbreaking support for major facilities, operational enhancements and scholarships and programs for student-athletes.
The Cleo and Lewis Conner, Sr. Short Game Facility and driving range tee boxes were expanded and enhanced, while the putting greens were improved to better mirror playing conditions on competition courses. Vanderbilt added a new stroke-gained area to continue to help student-athletes train more efficiently and reach their full potential and modified the chipping areas to create more length for a wider array of shots.
“This is a transformational facility for our golf program,” said Scott Limbaugh, Thomas F. Roush, M.D. and Family Men’s Golf Head Coach. “When you walk through our new golf house, you see what’s possible when visionary leadership meets extraordinary generosity. Chancellor Daniel Diermeier and Athletic Director Candice Lee understand that excellence requires investment, and they’ve been unwavering champions for our student-athletes.
“This is also a celebration of what our previous student-athletes helped to build by creating a championship foundation. From the enhanced practice area to the state-of-the-art training spaces, every detail is designed to develop champions and do it with class. Our student-athletes represent the very best of what Vanderbilt stands for—excellence in everything they do. Now, our golfers have a home that matches their commitment to greatness. Anyone who walks through these…
