“Matrix continues to own Woodlake Country Club,” the statement from a Matrix spokesperson said, the Press reported. “The demand for golf at the club has declined in recent years, and Matrix made the financial decision to temporarily close the club while the company determines the next best direction for the property.”%u200B
