Troon Promotes Rob DeMore to President of Troon Privé Division

(Scottsdale, Ariz.) – Troon, the leader in golf course management, development, and marketing, has promoted Rob DeMore to president of its Troon Privé Division.  DeMore replaces Ryan Walls, who has moved to BallenIsles Country Club (a Troon Privé-managed facility) in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida, to become the club’s new chief operating officer and general manager.  DeMore has served as senior vice president of Troon Privé since fall of 2016 and has more than twenty years of blended hospitality and golf experience.

As Troon Privé Division president, DeMore will oversee the division’s growing collection of fine private clubs around the world. The Troon Privé Division currently manages nearly 70 private clubs, half of which are member owned, including BallenIsles Country Club.
