內(nèi)容概要

  Favourite Holes by Design: The Architect's Choice comprises fifty-eight essays written by leading golf-course architects from the major golf-playing nations.  Several of the game's most celebrated holes are featured: the treacherous Road hole at The Old Course, St. Andrews; Pebble Beach's beguiling seventh; Royal Troon's diminutive Postage Stamp eighth hole; Ballybunion's majestic eleventh hole,  among them. By nature, golf architects are clinical, reasoned, and articulate. But let's not forget they are golfers, too, and prone to the internal and external influences that all golfers experience. Tugging at one's heartstrings, who could discount the affinity that develops between golfer, hole, and course, during one's early years in the game. Stories of that ilk are interwoven throughout Favourite Holes.  Compare your favourite hole to those of the architects. Hear their passion and learn their knowledge about the hole's design and mood as it works on the player.  Presenting a list of favourite holes derived solely from the world's most cherished golf courses would be a lost opportunity. The famous cathedrals of golf, such as, Pine Valley, Royal Melbourne, Shinnecock Hills, Cypress Point, Pebble Beach, St. Andrews Old, don't have a mortgage on great holes, nor do regulation eighteen-hole layouts. Visit even the rankest of municipal courses, and you're bound to find one hole that has merit.  Favourite Holes by Design: The Architect's Choice features a range of holes that vary in composition, difficulty, and appearance. Some ntries are unapologetically 'penal,' while others are examples of golf holes designed along classical 'heroic' and 'strategic' lines.    作者作者:    A student of golf-course architecture, Paul Daley enjoys his career of writing, editing, and publishing golf literature. Paul's new release, Favourite Holes by Design: The Architect's Choice follows the successful first twovol umes of Golf Architecture: A Worldwide Perspective, a t h ree-vol u m e collection of golf architecture-based essays from contributors within the golf architecture industry. Pr evious titles, Links Golf: The Inside Story (2000) and The Sand belt: Melbourne's Golfing Heaven (2001)--a collaboration with renowned golf course photographer, David Scaletti—were joint runners-up in the United States Golf Association International Golf Book of the Year Award in 2000 and 2001. A member of both Hunting dale and The National Golf Clubs in Melbourne, Australia, the Tilling hast Society, and the Golf Society of Australia, Paul is an ex-pennant golfer currently playing from a handicap of five.
