## Summary

Tiger Woods’s design firm will redesign Tam O’Shanter Country Club on Long Island, aiming to revive a course that has been closed since 2021. The project marks a return for the site, which became known for a prostitution and strippers scandal involving members in the early 2010s.

The land was sold in 2019 for a proposed housing development, but the plans fell through after arsenic was discovered. TGR Design is partnering with private golf company The Armchair Collective, which bought the land in September; the plans include new practice facilities, a clubhouse and a golf performance centre. Woods has not played since the 2024 Open Championship, and his return to competition remains uncertain.
