Did you know that Eduardo “El Gato” Romero and Randy Thompson have agreed to co-design a golf course in suburban Buenos Aires? Or that a Harvard-educated economist is itching to build a ski resort in China's Tian Shan Mountains? Or that Robert Trent Jones, Jr. is designing a golf course in South Korea for an affiliate of Sun Myung Moon's Unification Church?
Those are just three of the golf projects we profile in this month's World Edition of the Golf Course Report. The new issue hit the streets about two weeks ago. If recent experience is a reliable guide, some of February's stories will soon be spread all over cyberspace -- minus my byline, of course, and sometimes with the bylines of people who had nothing whatsoever to do with the researching, reporting, and writing that occupy so many hours of my time.
Yes, I'm talking about you, Jonny Lyman, you weasel. What gives you the right to put your name on my work?
February's World Edition also has news about two high-profile golf projects that are being resurrected: Jack Nicklaus Golf Club Anguilla and Forest Hills Golf & Country Club in suburban Moscow.
We also have stories about the Italian group that aims to build a golf course in Romania, the Swedish golf star who's co-designed a “sustainable” course in Austria, and a new course in St. Petersburg. (That would be Russia, not Florida.)
We also report on several new courses in China, a pair in Vietnam, and others in Poland, Scotland, Argentina, and Egypt, plus notable renovations in Australia and India.
If you'd like a copy of this month's World Edition, give me a call at 301/680-9460 or send an e-mail to me at WorldEdition@aol.com.
And if you're out there, Jonny Lyman, I'd love for you to give me a call. We have a lot to talk about.
