In 2019, the Astros Golf Foundation pledged to refurbish Memorial Park Golf Course to make it a world-class playing field for all Houstonians. With the renovations, the Astros Golf Foundation ushered in the return of the PGA TOUR's Houston Open to Memorial Park for the first time since 1963. Now, Memorial Park Golf Course is known as one of the best municipal courses in the nation and is visited by more than 60,000 patrons each year.

To make sure the renovations were top of the line, the Astros Golf Foundation enlisted world-renowned golf course architect, Tom Doak to design the course. With help from four-time major winner Brooks Koepka serving as the PGA TOUR player consultant and Don Mahaffey, president of Greenscape Methods, overseeing construction, Doak rose to the challenge of creating a municipal golf course that could be played by both professionals and the general public alike.

One of the most intriguing features of the course is the state-of-the-art storm water irrigation system that was designed to capture and retain 80 million gallons of storm water for irrigation purposes removing the golf course's irrigation from the city's potable water system. The grounds also house a two-tiered 84-bay hitting structure, a new maintenance facility, and additional parking.
