Issue 51 of Golf Course Architecture is out now

Issue 51 of Golf Course Architecture features on its cover a shot of Adare Manor in Ireland. Fazio Design has recently renovated the golf course at the resort in County Limerick, so Toby Ingleton paid a visit to see how it turned out.

This issue’s lead feature examines how the field of golf course architecture might change between now and 2030. Adam Lawrence speaks with a number of designers to get their thoughts.

In the tee box, GCA visits Danzante Bay in Mexico to see the completed course, which has been designed by Rees Jones. We also speak to architect Tim Lobb, and take a look at Robert Trent Jones II Golf Course Architects’ recent project list.

We have opinion articles from a number of leading industry figures, including architect Ian Andrew, who explains why he thinks restoration projects may soon be a thing of the past, while Ross McMurray discusses how the concept of kaleidoscope golf has been incorporated into the design of a new golf course in Russia.

GCA also reports back from recent trips to Aguilón Golf in southern Spain, Skövde Golfklubb in Sweden, and Rolling Hills in Los Angeles.
