Podcast appearances and mentions of Gil Hanse

Andy Johnson gets a head start on U.S. Open week with a two-part look at Oakmont Country Club. First, Andy chats with Gil Hanse, consulting architect at Oakmont, about his recent work on the course and his expectations for how it will play for the pros next week. The two discuss possible pin placements for the tournament and the history that guided Gil's renovation. Andy is then joined by Oakmont superintendent Mike McCormick to discuss the turf management at the club and how his team is preparing for the U.S. Open. Mike shares details about the culture at Oakmont and the daily challenges of maintaining one of the toughest courses in America.

In this episode of Inside Golf Podcast, Andy sits down with Andrew Harvie, managing partner at Golf Club Atlas to discuss his two recent trips to Florida and Texas. They dive into the Florida private golf bubble and many of the exciting new developments in the Sunshine state, including Apogee, High Grove, the Ranch, Sandglass, Cabot Citrus Farms, and many others. Andrew then discusses his recent trip to Texas, which includes Childress Hall and Luling, two exciting new clubs from Tom Doak, Gil Hanse and Jim Wagner, and Kyle Franz that are set to rival the Oohoopee Model. They identify which of these new developments will shine and receive critical acclaim, and the question that I continue to ponder, is any of this good for the game of golf—being that all of the best architecture is matriculating at ultra private destination clubs that 99.9% of the golfing public will ever get to experience. Thanks for listening and subscribing to Inside Golf Podcast with Andy Lack, cheers!

Tom Mackenzie from Mackenzie & Ebert is our guest for this episode, talking all things NSWGC redesign, plus the arm-wrestle between designing in the dirt and having a plan to work to, the tension between form and function, tricks for making tight sections of property feel spacious and why he thinks Melbourne is the best golf city in the world.But before then, because this is who we are now, there's a mea culpa about the love lives of two of Gil Hanse's employees...As always – special thanks to our OG supporter - Angus AndGrace Go Golfing.

Most people don't think twice about the public golf courses in their city—until they start disappearing. Across the country, historic municipal courses have been neglected for decades, leaving behind a patchwork of underfunded, undermaintained spaces that struggle to serve their communities. But there's a shift happening, and it's reshaping the future of the game. Will Smith, co-founder of the National Links Trust, has been at the center of that shift. He and his team took on the ambitious task of restoring three historic municipal courses in Washington, D.C., securing a 50-year lease and enlisting some of the best architects in the game. These aren't just renovations; they're a rethinking of what public golf can be. With a focus on accessibility, sustainability, and financial viability, the work being done is proving that municipal courses don't have to be stuck in a cycle of decline. The way forward for public golf isn't just about fixing tee boxes and bunkers—it's about creating spaces that truly serve their communities. The changes happening in D.C. offer a roadmap for how cities everywhere can reclaim their public courses and make the game more welcoming for generations to come.  Topics covered: The neglected state of municipal golf and why it matters [00:50]  The National Links Trust and the fight to restore public courses [03:00]  Rethinking what a municipal golf course can be [08:10]  The business model behind municipal golf's comeback [11:10]  The future of public golf and what's at stake [16:30]  How municipal golf courses can secure funding for long-term success [20:00]  The national movement to restore and protect municipal golf courses [28:10]   Final thoughts: The lasting impact of municipal golf restoration [36:00]  Resources & People Mentioned National Links Trust – Revitalizing historic municipal golf courses.

Hello and Welcome Back!I was thrilled to be able to chat with Reece Haspell recently to discuss his pretty remarkable career so far. Reece has been working as a shaper for Gil Hanse at many interesting places, most recently on the re-design at Royal Sydney which is just about to re-open. Reece has spent a bit of time in NZ over the last year and it was great to get his impressions on some of the courses he has visited, and he gave some great insight on the work that is just beginning at Hogan's Gully which is a new course just outside of Arrowtown here in NZ. Enjoy!

In this episode of the National Links Trust Podcast, our host, Will Smith, is joined by Geoff Shackelford. Geoff is one of golf's most influential writers having authored 11 books and with his work appearing in the Los Angeles Times, Sports Illustrated, Golf Digest, and more.  He is also the publisher of The Quadrilateral, a newsletter that covers the game through the lens of the four majors. Geoff teamed up with Gil Hanse to design Rustic Canyon Golf Course: one of Southern California's best public courses. He is a native Southern Californian and still resides in the greater Lost Angeles area today. In this interview, Geoff and Will discuss public golf in the greater Los Angeles area. They touch on the challenges and opportunities presented by the public and municipal courses in the area, as well as golf's role as Los Angeles recovers from the devastating fires earlier this winter. 

Lucas Glover and Gil Hanse joined the show today. Glover, who has been outspoken on some of the PGA TOUR's decisions, discussed his POV on taking away playing opportunities, the pace of play, the state of the game and other pressing issue for the Tour. Hanse joined from a bulldozer in Venus, FL, site of his latest project, and he talked about some of the courses he and his Caveman Construction team are working on at Spanish Bay and other locations, as well as the new technologies in course design and how best to keep the integrity of greens in restorations. The show closed out with the team picks for the WM Phoenix Open and our latest installment of "Golf Dogs of the Week".

Casey Brozek, PGA Director of Golf at Medinah Country Club, joined the Club + Resort Talks podcast to discuss the renovation of Medinah's #3 course, completed in July 2024. The project, led by OCM Design, included significant changes like repositioning holes 17 and 18, adding 50 acres of fescue grass, and removing trees to improve turf conditions. The course now offers more playable options for members and hosts the 2026 President's Cup. Challenges included educating members about the changes and maintaining the course's natural features. The renovation also included 40 miles of drainage and Better Billy Bunkers, enhancing playability and maintenance efficiency. Rob Thomas, Editor-in-Chief of Club + Resort Business, also covered current news from across the industry, including Forest Dunes announcing a new private golf club. The award-winning golf facility in Roscommon, Mich., is poised to add a fourth course—SkyFall, a new private club designed by Gil Hanse and Jim Wagner that will also allow limited resort guest play. Henderson Park has completed the acquisition of PGA National Resort in Palm Beach Gardens, Fla., from a Brookfield Asset Management private real estate fund. The 807-acre property was purchased in a joint venture partnership with Salamander and South Street Partners. Lastly, Taylor Morrison's new resort lifestyle community, Esplanade at St. Marys on the Georgia coast, will include an 18-hole championship golf course from C.W. Golf Architecture, a wellness center featuring a full-service salon and spa, a resort pool and spa, a state-of-the-art fitness center, tennis/pickleball/bocce sports courts, a culinary center featuring multiple food and beverage outlets, and more.

In this end-of-year podcast, Walker and Henry reflect on their experiences throughout 2024, discussing personal and professional highlights, their favorite golf courses, and architectural insights. They share their aspirations for 2025, emphasizing the importance of storytelling in golf and the evolution of their podcasting journey. In this conversation, the hosts discuss various themes related to golf, including the rising recognition of Gil Hanse's original work, insights into golf course conditioning, cultural moments in the game, food programs at golf courses, memorable rounds of golf, and their vision for the future of their podcast. Each theme is explored in depth, providing listeners with a comprehensive understanding of the current landscape in golf and the hosts' personal experiences. Hope you all enjoy this conversation.

Wagner joins fellow Philly native Tom Coyne to offer an inside look at his firm's process, and the collection of globe-trotting, earth-moving shapers responsible for masterpieces from Ohoopee to Ladera and beyond.

It didnt get a lot of press a couple of months ago, but the restoration of the famed Cobbs Creek Golf Course is underway in Philadelphia. This public golf course was once one of the shining lights of public golf when it was designed and with Gil Hanse and Jim Wagner on their dozers, I wouldnt bet against Cobbs Creek becoming a beacon for how cities can embrace their public golf courses. What gets lost in this big story is how the dreams of two men (Cirba and Bausch) are about to come true. This is a story of how passion can overcome all odds.

A couple of weeks ago, Garrett spoke with architect Gil Hanse in front of an audience at the Pearl Street Warehouse in Washington, D.C. Their conversation was part of the National Links Trust Symposium on Municipal Golf, so they focused on Gil's résumé of municipal designs, from Rustic Canyon and Soule Park in the early 2000s, to the recently opened Park in West Palm Beach, to his ongoing projects at Maggie Hathaway in Los Angeles and Rock Creek Park in D.C. Garrett and Gil touch on a variety of larger topics, such as the importance of architectural minimalism to affordable golf course development and the recent changes in both the golf architecture industry and Gil's own workload. Many thanks to the National Links Trust for asking Garrett to be involved in this year's symposium, and for letting us share this conversation with our listeners.

This Wednesday episode begins with the somber news of an Aaron Rodgers injury and a hypothetical on 24-hours of disaster at MetLife stadium. Then Brendan and Andy move to three things from social media in the last couple days 1) Tiger out there on a range, swinging some clubs (lightly) in public, 2) the off-the-bus intimidating burliness of the team picture for Europe during its scouting day in Rome, and 3) the PGA Tour's “tough spot” regarding even the acknowledgment of one of the country's great tragedies. The schedule for the week is back, with some thoughts on the Fortinet field and ample discussion on the BMW PGA Championship at Wentworth, a place Billy Horschel said he'd prefer to play for “25” events a year. Billy had a lot to say, including pleas for more Americans to play it and also that the trees make it feel like there are even more fans watching. News hits on Gil Hanse renovating Spanish Bay, USGA championships coming to Prairie Dunes, and more.

PGA Frisco is one of the most important golf-development projects of the past two decades. It consists of two 18-hole golf courses, lighted par-3 and putting courses, an ambitious hotel and retail enterprise, and a new "home" for the PGA of America. In the next 12 years, Frisco will host six PGA majors: two PGA Championships, two Senior PGAs, and two Women's PGAs. Andy visited the complex recently and joins Garrett to discuss everything he saw. The two cover the overall development and partnership between the PGA, Omni Hotels and Resorts, and the city of Frisco, Texas; and they break down the Gil Hanse-designed East course and the Beau Welling-designed West course. There's praise for the PGA's efforts to bring golf to a major metropolitan area as well as critiques of some architectural details and concerns about the cost of the sprawling compound.
