Reynolds Lake Oconee Announces Eighth Golf Course, Third For Members

Forbes29-05-2025
Reynolds Lake Oconee has announced that construction on an eighth course at the lakefront community ... More is underway, with Fenmoor set to be the third for members only.
Reynolds Lake Oconee unveiled plans for its eighth golf course within its sprawling resort real estate community, with the forthcoming Fenmoor Golf Club being the third that will be limited to member-only play.
Construction is already underway and the 18-hole layout, designed by architect Steve Smyers, is scheduled to open in Fall of 2026. Fenmoor will join The Creek Club and Richland, which debuted last year, as the third private course at Reynolds Lake Oconee, where golf demand has surged in recent years among a residential base that's continued to not only grow but get younger. Ahead of Richland's 2024 opening, annual rounds at Reynolds Lake Oconee's courses had jumped 44% compared to pre-pandemic years.
Located in the northeast corner of the 12,000-acre lakefront community, Fenmoor will occupy a distinctive site at the headwaters of Lake Oconee, featuring marshland edges, native grasses, and rolling terrain that provides natural elevation changes and water features throughout the routing. Nine greens will be positioned directly along the water's edge, with Lake Oconee visible from much of the course.
"The land is absolutely ideal for golf," said Smyers. " We're very fortunate to have a piece of property this diverse, with the movement of the land -- gentle rolls, swales, valleys, hummocks, mounds, and ravines -- combined with the presence of water running through it. This site allows us to create a course with a distinct look and feel unlike any other at Reynolds Lake Oconee.'
Steve Smyers is the architect overseeing construction of the newest course at Reynolds Lake Oconee.
As the name suggests, water will be a defining feature of the course. Beyond the presence of the lake itself, the Fenmoor site is interwoven with rivulets and streams branching from Richland Creek, providing for multiple water crossings and creating an ever-changing landscape between lakefront, wooded wetlands, and marshes to grassy fields and meadows.
'Native plants will connect the course to the marsh, the lake, and the tree line,' Smyers explained. 'We want the golf course to feel as if it simply emerges from the landscape.'
Water will be a defining feature of Fenmoor, with nine water's edge greens.
When Fenmoor opens, it will give Reynolds Lake Oconee 144 total holes of golf, trailing only Pinehurst Resort in North Carolina and Boyne's collection of Michigan properties in terms of total holes among American golf destinations. While other resorts such as Bandon Dunes in Oregon and Michigan's Gull Lake View offer more holes open to public play, Reynolds' unique blend of public and private options serves both resort guests and its 4,000 member families at the property midway between Atlanta and Augusta, Georgia.
Five of Reynolds' seven existing courses – Great Waters, The Landing, The National, The Oconee, and The Preserve – are open to public play as well as guests of the on-property Ritz-Carlton.
In addition to the new course, Fenmoor Golf club will feature a dedicated putting course, numerous short-game areas, and expansive practice facilities designed for game improvement. There will also be a new clubhouse that will feature a restaurant and bar, men's and women's locker rooms and lounges, terraces, and a variety of gathering spaces.

"Fenmoor Golf Club reflects our constant vision to thoughtfully grow Reynolds Lake Oconee while preserving the natural beauty and character that make this community so special," said John Gunderson, CEO of Daniel Communities, the managing partner for Reynolds Lake Oconee.
The community in recent years has continued to evolve into a multi-generational destination, supported by expanded amenities including 11 restaurants, a Sporting Club, regular entertainment, the wealth of lake activities, and wellness and fitness facilities including pools, gyms, tennis and pickleball courts, hiking trails, and an on-site spa.

NVIDIA Corporation (NVDA)'s CEO Has A Great Relationship With Trump, Says Jim Cramer

We recently published . NVIDIA Corporation (NASDAQ:NVDA) is one of the stocks Jim Cramer recently discussed. After bleeding close to $600 billion in market value in January amidst the DeepSeek selloff, Wall Street's AI chip darling, NVIDIA Corporation (NASDAQ:NVDA) is once again the most valuable company in the world. The firm has benefited from growing investor bullishness about the long-term prospects of AI. NVIDIA Corporation (NASDAQ:NVDA)'s shares closed the week 1% higher after big tech's continued persistence to spend billions of dollars to buy AI chips. Cramer discussed the impact and the CEO's relationship with President Trump: 'All CapEx go up, it's all NVIDIA. . .it's really good for NVIDIA. But of course, NVIDIA, the President talking about breaking them up, we'll get to that later. It was an out of body comment. Previously, the CNBC TV host commented on NVIDIA Corporation (NASDAQ:NVDA)'s shares and parabolic moves: 'What is the solution to this? Look, in my forthcoming book, How to Make Money in Any Market, I have banished my antiparabola bias. I have a method I reveal of picking five stocks to go alongside an index fund with some money added each month. I state point blank that if you are in your 30s or older, you should own one speculative situation like an Oklo, okay, or a Joby. Just one. It could fail you after going parabolic. Moreover, if you're under 30, you can pick two speculative names out of five because you've got enough time to make back any potential losses. Photo by Javier Esteban on Unsplash Now, you may think I'm reckless for endorsing any of these even with caveats, but it's time to admit that for many years now, speculative stocks with great growth, they've worked. Oh, and let's not forget, they don't have to stay speculative. NVIDIA stock has had many parabolic moves, including the one that started in April. To keep yourself out of these runs because of a principle that stopped working ages ago, that's to be blind to change, and I don't like it. I don't want to be that way.' While we acknowledge the potential of NVDA as an investment, our conviction lies in the belief that some AI stocks hold greater promise for delivering higher returns and have limited downside risk.

Browns QB Kenny Pickett reportedly suffers hamstring injury after appearing to take early lead in position battle

Cleveland Browns quarterback Kenny Pickett went down with a hamstring injury on Saturday afternoon in training camp. Specifics of his injury or the severity of it are not yet known, though Pickett is expected to be re-evaluated again later this week, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. While there is plenty of time for him to bounce back before their season-opener, the injury could undoubtedly open the door for others deep in the four-man quarterback battle. [Join or create a Yahoo Fantasy Football league for the 2025 NFL season] The Browns struck a deal to acquire Pickett from the Philadelphia Eagles in March, part of a move to bolster the position after Deshaun Watson tore his right Achilles tendon for a second time. They then brought in veteran Joe Flacco, who made it clear he didn't want to just sit back and help the room, and the Browns selected two quarterbacks in the NFL Draft earlier this spring. They landed Oregon star Dillon Gabriel and Colorado standout Shedeur Sanders, who ended up sliding down to the fifth round. Though it's still early in the position battle, it's been Pickett that has impressed so far. He's taken a bulk of the first-team reps early on, and took the final snaps at practice on Saturday. He threw a touchdown pass on that play, too, according to ESPN. Flacco and Gabriel, however, have rotated in with him throughout the week. Sanders has yet to receive first-team reps. "His first two days have been stellar," Browns QBs coach Bill Musgrave said of Pickett earlier this week, via ESPN. "He had one throw, he was late yesterday, resulting in an interception, which is OK. We don't want interceptions, but at times we learn from when we stub our toes more than we have our triumphs. But he's had his share of triumphs these last two days, especially throwing on the run. Incredibly accurate for just jumping back into camp after us being off a number of weeks this summer." There are any number of ways the Browns can end up going at quarterback. Flacco is a proven winner throughout his career, but he's entering his 18th season in the league at 40 years old this fall. Gabriel and Sanders are unproven, but were great prospects coming out of college. And Pickett has been a starter in the league, too, though he's now with his third team in four seasons looking to finally find true success after struggling early on in his career. Time will tell who Musgrave and the Browns end up going with for their season opener against the Cincinnati Bengals on Sept. 7. But if Pickett's hamstring injury lingers, like they often can, the early advantage he's seemingly picked up in the race may disappear quickly in training camp.

🗣️ MLS refs issue response to Cincinnati's disallowed goal vs Inter Miami

There was plenty of refereeing controversy in the highly anticipated MLS showdown between FC Cincinnati and Inter Miami Saturday evening. Miami felt aggrieved over not being awarded a penalty in the second-half when Fafà Picault was taken down in the box. Yet the visitors from Cincinnati were equally dismayed when a stoppage-time Miles Robinson game-winning goal was disallowed for what some perceive to be a soft foul on Noah Allen. Both sets of players remonstrated with the referee after the match, with plenty of fans online making the case that Cincinnati should have been awarded the dramatic game-winning goal. After the match in South Florida Saturday evening, PRO — the MLS referees organization — issued a response to reporters backing up their decision to rule out the goal. "The referee observed a foul committed by #12 Miles Robinson of FC Cincinnati against #32 Noah Allen of Inter Miami, making clear contact with the face," the statement read. "The referee delayed the whistle the allow the opportunity for VAR to review for a possible goal. After a VAR check, the referee's decision was confirmed." Cincinnati head coach Pat Noonan remained level-headed in his response after the goalless draw, but nonetheless confirmed that he believed the goal should have stood. A win would have seen Cincinnati remain in first place in the Eastern Conference and the Supporters' Shield race. Having dropped points, Noonan's side slipped into second to finish the weekend. 📸 Carmen Mandato - 2025 Getty Images
