Tom Fazio begins work on east potomac golf links renovation

Acclaimed golf course designer Tom Fazio is moving forward with plans to renovate East Potomac Golf Links in Washington, D.C., at the request of President Trump. The project aims to transform the nearly century-old municipal course into a championship-caliber facility while addressing drainage issues and preserving public access.

Fazio, 81, initially declined the offer due to concerns over permitting and local opposition but changed his mind after touring the site. He has designed multiple courses for Trump previously and described the location as having Pebble Beach quality in terms of its setting and views of the Washington Monument.

President Donald Trump has announced or begun a wide-ranging set of construction and renovation efforts in Washington, D.C., from resurfacing the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool to pursuing a new White House ballroom and proposed monument projects tied to the nation’s 250th anniversary in July 2026. Several initiatives have prompted lawsuits, procedural disputes and public backlash, even as federal planning bodies continue to review and, in some cases, approve the proposals.

Interior Secretary Doug Burgum shared a rendering of a new design for East Potomac Golf Links on Thursday, bringing the long-debated renovation of the Washington, D.C., municipal course into clearer view. The plan calls for a par-72, 7,660-yard layout with added water features and a separate practice area.
