Description

Mark Mungeam discusses how he got into golf course architecture with the help of Geoffrey Cornish, his work at Olympia Fields in Chicago to prep it for a U.S. Open, the differences between private and muni projects. We also discuss rankings and Mungeam’s role on the American Society of Golf Course Architects. He will be the president starting in the fall 2025.

Mungeam is also a member of the American Society of Golf Course Architects and will become its president in the fall of 2025. We also hit on several talented up-and-coming golf architects, including Brian Schneider and Angela Moser. We wrap up talking about golf course rankings and the impact they can on the industry, but Mark Mungeam emphasizes the importance of focusing on doing the best job possible rather than worrying about rankings. He also discusses the trend of shorter golf courses and the need for entry-level courses to attract new players.
