Having been subject to a change in ownership recently, Dimitri has been brought in to advise on an aesthetic upgrade of the bunkers at Happy Waregem Golf course in the west of Belgium. This involved introducing new bunker sand from Germany which has made a dramatic improvement on the quality of the course already.

Dimitri is involved in a large scale project to improve the course at Oudenaarde Golf and Country Club – the largest golf course in the Flemish part of Belgium. Spanning the next 5 years, all areas of the course will be subject to significant improvements. Comprising two 18 hole courses and a 4 hole pitch and putt facility, the first phase of development at Oudenaarde will start with the Kasteel course. The parkland aspect will be improved, highlighting the open character of the Flemish Ardennes surrounding the area. The course itself will be enhanced by adding mounds and hollows, upgrading bunkers and their locations and changing tees. Importantly, the scheme will also encompass works to the existing trees, planting new species for sustainability and create better harmony with the ponds on the site which are currently out of sight due to poor tree maintenance.
