Issue 7, January 2007

In this issue, we look at the impact of golf carts on course design. Operators love carts for their effect on profits, but are they bad for golf courses?

New golfing hotspots such as the Middle East, Eastern Europe and China are profiled in our feature entitled ‘Golf spreads its wings’, and architect Howard Swan examines the course design work of five times Open champion James Braid.

Tiger Woods’ entry into the design business leads off our news section, which also covers course development work in India, Scotland, the USA and Bahrain.

And our ‘On Site’ section visits La Zagaleta in Spain, the new Carrick course on Loch Lomond and Northwick Park’s six hole Majors course in London.
