The Star Tribune checks in with an update on the U of Minnesota golf course.

I previously blogged about this topic and won’t get any further in to my feelings on the place.

Short story is that the place is going to be saved, but the renovation work will have a budget of $7.5 million instead of closer to $20 million.

My take: It’s good for golf as the course does fill a need. But let’s just say that I won’t be taking a nostalgic last trip around there.
