Here are photos of the ST Maples holes.
Changing the areas near trees, where grass doesn't grow well, to a waste area
is a good idea. However, debris from the trees and dirty tan sand, isn't a very
good look, compared to clean white waste areas at a course like Shaft Glen.
It's great having new greens, but they are all shaped like a circle or oval.
I have always played renovated courses on my next trip to MB.
I have decided not to check out ST Maples on my upcoming 2026 trip, but I will
play renovated Whispering Pines + Kings North.

It looks like they did very little to the greens other than regrass them, which is a shame. They've clearly shrunk from their original size and mostly turned into circles/ovals.
They should have rebuilt them entirely, expanding and making more interesting to have better pin positions.
