What Makes a Good Match-Play Golf Course?

from Designing Golf · host Fried Egg Golf

With the Ryder Cup approaching, Garrett asks a question that has been on his mind for a while: what, if anything, suits a golf course to the match-play format? Garrett talks to two different architects: first, Andy Staples, who recently designed a match-play course called The Match at PGA National Resort; second, Brian Schneider, who is somewhat skeptical of the notion of a “match-play course.” To close out the episode, Garrett discusses his takeaways from his chats with Andy and Brian, and he offers some thoughts on Bethpage Black’s design and suitability for the Ryder Cup.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Det gör jag fortfarande. Därför är det ingen som ber mig skriva bruksanvisningar eller protokoll.Första gången jag skrev om golf var 1963. Amerikanen Julius Boros vann US Open på The Country Club, inte långt från Boston. Banan låg hård och brunbränd under solen. Bollarna studsade nyckfullt. Texten stod i tidningen Svensk Golf. Mitt val av yrkesbana kan jämföras med de studsande bollarna.
