Golf Course Architecture  |  January 2024
The January 2024 issue of Golf Course Architecture magazine is out now.
The Biarritz third hole at Metairie Country Club in Louisiana, photographed by Larry Lambrecht, features on the cover of the new issue. In our report on the project, we hear how architect Brian Silva has worked to return the character of original designer Seth Raynor to the layout.
For our main feature in this issue, we ask: how can golf attract more young people, and what role does course design play in that? The revival in golf since the pandemic has given the game a shot in the arm, but it remains dominated by middle aged and older players. Golf course architects Scott Macpherson, Jonathan Davison, Caspar Grauballe and Chad Goetz provide their thoughts on the topic.
Brad Klein travels to south Florida to visit Apogee Club, where the first of three planned courses has now opened, and Adam Lawrence reports on a trip to Jameson Golf Links near Dublin, Ireland, which is set to become another serious golfing player in the country.
We also speak with Jeremy Slessor, who for 30 years has run European Golf Design, the golf design business of the European Tour Group and one of the largest operations in the industry. He talks about his career, particularly at EGD, which now has a portfolio of over 70 projects in 24 countries.
Elsewhere, our Tee Box section includes news of a match play course that King-Collins is creating for the new 21 Club in the Carolina Sandhills; we have reports on projects by Rees Jones, Brian Curley and Greg Letsche; and Arthur Little provides insight into how courses should be designed to enable golfers with slow swings to enjoy the game.
And, with the golf course industry preparing for the GCSAA Conference and Trade Show in Phoenix, GCA highlights some of the businesses to check out if you are attending.
