Is this golf course still operating?

Looks like the golf course has been shut down. Is there any chance that this golf course will reopen?

...closed since June 01,2020...
...the historic club with its great Robert Trent Jones Sr. Courses is to be renovated, according to a statement from the McMahonGroup on September 27th, 2019...
...after many years of operating losses with insufficient income to cover expenses, the owner has determined that the business is no longer profitable and it is time to redevelop the entire property for other purposes. ..
...in 2018 alone, nearly 200 golf courses were closed in the States, with closures exceeding new openings for 13 consecutive years...
...in the South Florida Business & Wealth - writes Kevin Gale on April 07,2022 - the legendary club - who lived here with comedian, actor, composer and band leader Jackie Gleason (died 1987) and was closely associated with the club connected - will be permanently closed because the two golf courses cannot be operated economically.
Inverrary was one of the premier golf destinations around Miami when it opened in 1970 with the Inverrary Classic - later known as the Honda Inverrary Classic.
Tom Weisskopf, Lee Trevino, Jack Nicklaus and Johnny Miller - to name just a few - were the big names who played for glory on the East Course.
The PGA has held 15 tournaments here, and Jackie Gleason and his tournament also attracted many celebrities - including the then US President Gerald Ford.
Impressive what happens when the caravan pulls further with their draft horses,,,

Faded fame

You plan and build with much capital two golf courses and many residential units, organize a few years a PGA Tournament to boost their sales and then the promoters move on. The place and the club responsible are left to themselves.
In the year 1997 we started here for the first time on the Tour-Course (East), it was really cold. The morning start time caused a multi-layered clothing. Everything was available was covered, including rain layer. With increasing playing time, layer after layer migrated back into the pockets.
The encounter with the Marshall at that time is remembered.
On the second nine we waited for the Championstee until we could play.
The Marshall came from behind. Perch - without greeting - he finally told us to play. Those behind us would always have to wait.
My Fligth partner - an Englishman - pointed out that those who play behind us have been behind us since hole 10.
We should finally play, his reaction.
He planted his ball and swung his driver. The former playing pro hits the ball on the trajectory.
Päääggg - the foreplayers left with their arms wildly waving their cars.
Come on - the bones dry call me.
I bent down, the Marshall pushed the accelerator of his rickety car full and rushed forward. We have seen him and the players in front of us as more, unfortunately not the ball from Pro.
That Robert Trent Jones Sr. was an exceptional golf course designer is beyond doubt. He belongs to the Big Five. Again, he has done a good job, but he is not one of his top places.
Varied, challenging, challenging and interesting golf holes have been created here, especially if you're looking for the par - some are rather narrow. In part, the green are small and built with shallow depth - typical Trent Jones.
The PGA and the LPGA have stopped here several times. They still feed on these tournaments.
At that time the course maintenance was okay - we had fun to play - also with later visits.
And today - over 10 years since the last visit - what should we say?
To put it this way, the maintenance of space and the maintenance of space does not quite live up to the reputation of this facility. An UP date is not mandatory but maintenance and care already.
The deal with the guests was not this time without noises.
We wanted to play at places - have waived the West Course.
The place itself would have earned four stars the rest one or two?

Disappointments
Reviewed December 10, 2014
The staff in the pro shop was rude, When we asked for rental clubs the young man annoyed. Then reluctantly brought the bat and let the bags fall also equal times. Had the late tea time reserved (2:22 pm) and a slow group in front of us. Could only play 11 holes since then the course superintendents came and said that, the Cart must be submitted until 5:30 pm (we were not told beforehand).

Time travel into the past
Reviewed September 8, 2013
The course has been created excellent and unfortunately the best times behind itself. The golf team in place is still living in the glory days, but which are very long gone. The course has received unfortunately no update and is therefore in a state mittellbrächitgen. Is a typical Robert T. Johns Course and offers variety.
