Abstract/Contents: | Describes the life of Herbert Lockett Rymill, who "was considered the font of golf course design knowledge in South Australia and was highly regarded throughout the country for his expertise." Highlights his childhood and education, his years at Glenelg Golf Club, and his time spent playing as a golfer. Explains Rymill's methods in constructing Kooyonga Golf Links from 1922-1924. Describes his inspection of links in England and Scotland, his role as agent of Sutton and Sons of Reading, and his interactions with British golf architect Dr. Alister Mackenzie. States that "late in October 1926...'Cargie' surprisingly managed to have himself attached to the official inspection party that accompanied [Mackenzie] on his tours of Royal Adelaide Golf Club." Discusses Rymill's later design commissions and writings, and concludes with a summary of his legacy as a golfer and designer. |
