Justin Timberlake is shutting down his Tennessee golf course for six months to make improvements - shortly after opening it.

Mirimichi golf course in the SexyBack singer's native Memphis will close from 15 January to 17 July (09) while its greens, bunkers and drainage are improved and its wetlands, wildflowers and native grasses are expanded, according to the local Commercial Appeal newspaper.

Timberlake originally planned to make gradual improvements over three years while the course stayed open but changed his mind to speed its completion.

Timberlake and his family bought the former Big C reek Golf Course in 2007 and have already spent $16 million renovating the 18 holes.
