Abstract/Contents:Profiles the life and career of Donald Steel, "a golfer with heart, humor and knowledge who, through his play, writing, architecture and speaking, has contacted the game at more points than almost anyone." Describes Steel's influence on the game of golf in many countries, although not the U.S., his education, his books, and his philosophy of golf course design, which focuses on creating more options for players to, for example, "employ a ground as well as an air game," and draws attention to the beauty of the natural landscape. Suggests that the openings of U.S. courses designed by Steel, "along with the attention his redesign of Royal Liverpool Golf Club will receive leading up to the 2006 British Open," will increase his popularity in the U.S.
