Abstract/Contents:Discusses some of the challenges facing the game of golf and questions the lack of original concepts in architectural design. States that "a great course must always call for courage, skill strategy, self-control, a test of temper, and a revealer of character. If we reduce the game to simply a test of swing execution then we need only to construct high-tech driving ranges." Describes how the standards of golf have evolved over time.
