| Abstract/Contents: | Profiles golf course designer Alister MacKenzie. States that "in the second half of his life, he rode the leading edge in the period between the two World Wars that has come to be known as the 'Golden Age' of golf course architecture." Mentions that "joining MacKenzie in the World Golf Hall of Fame's 2005 class were late British golf journalist Bernard Darwin, Japan LPGA [Ladies Professional Golf Association] legend Ayako Okamoto, 19th century golf professional Willie Park Sr. and LPGA player Karrie Webb." Briefly details MacKenzie's career as a physician and describes his interest in military camouflage. States that "MacKenzie left behind 60 original course designs and a nearly equal number of renovations - to be found in Great Britain and Ireland, the United States and Canada, as well as in South America, New Zealand and Australia." Explains that "his design work deployed deception, but never trickery." |
