In this two-part biographical deep dive, Professor DJ takes Neil and Randy through the life and times of Charles Blair Macdonald, the father of American golf course architecture. Part one focuses on Macdonald’s introduction to golf from his time in Scotland, the design of America’s first eighteen hole course, the social circles who funded his early projects, the complicated history of what became the first official US Amateur championship,, and a ton more.

We’ll have part two of this deep dive out next week!
