In 1990 the Greg Norman designed Gilston Golf Club was nearing completion. After an investment of over $30 million by Japanese owners the Club opened, but just for one day! Then, incredibly, with insufficient funds available for the day-to-day operations, the gates closed. The would be Gilston GC remained closed for the next five years.
The course became overgrown, with the perfectly manicured lawns turning into a wilderness of long grass. The course was saved and rehabilitated by a consortium of Australian businessmen, and renamed as The Grand. The new owners re-commissioned Greg Norman to upgrade the design and prepare the course for its eventual re-opening in 1997 ... as The Grand Golf Club.
