Lukas Michel- USGA Champion & Design Associate at CD&P, 7 Mile Beach Update

Lukas is back!Always a blast talking to Lukas about golf course architecture AND competition. As we stand in late November 2022, both paths are still an option. As he gears up for a heavy summer with Australia's best events, 7 Mile Beach in Tasmania awaits his return. We go over the project, which is located about 15 minutes from the Hobart airport- nearly 3 hours closer than its predecessor, Barnbougle. We discuss what it's like learning from different approaches on site-- the Mikes (DeVries and Clayton) being the primary architects running the show. Lukas talks about having a shaping team of accomplished golfers, the autonomy and responsibility given on site (particularly with the practice facility at 7MB), and what it's like learning to build features more efficiently.
