  • 17Th Revision Mackenzie Timeline
    Drawing by Cathy Trachok Royal Adelaide Golf Club plan 1926 with permission The Dr. Alister MacKenzie Chronology The 17th Revision March 2013 Chronology Dr. MacKenzie at the Jockey Club in Buenos Aires, Rare dustwrapper of MacKenzie’s 1920 book 15th green at the Cypress Point Club Argentina, with Club President Mr. Eduardo Bullrich in April 1930 Photo courtesy: Pedro Cossio The Goal In the late 1990’s Nick Leefe and Bob Beck launched an effort to document the physical presence and movements of the great architect Dr. Alister MacKenzie. That effort sparked club secretaries, historians, architects, professional writers, enthusiasts – in short, a global community of MacKenzie admirers – to share their knowledge. This, the 17th Revision of “The Dr. Alister MacKenzie Chronology,” is the latest product of that collective and continuing generosity, and further expands on the previous revision. Why are MacKenzie’s whereabouts important? A timeline establishes a foundation of fact. Upon this foundation researchers can build their narratives of history. Without this fact base, large gaps in time appear, and speculation is the all too-common and unfortunate result - the quality of scholarship is impoverished. The ramifications can be significant - original design features and perhaps entire courses disappear or suffer disfiguration, writings are misunderstood or misinterpreted, attributions are missed or made improperly. As readers, as golfers, and as caretakers of the game of golf, we suffer.

He and Diegel were so busy with the film's production that they both missed their tee times in the Long Beach Open. As Golfers Magazine put it, Hagen did not "movie" fast enough to satisfy the tournament's officials. On February 1 he and Kirkwood left San Pedro, California, bound for Honolulu, then New Zealand, Australia, the Philippines, China, and Japan. Just before embarking, Hagen told reporters that he would use the unprecedented tour to sharpen his game for the summer's major events; the team planned to be back in time for the U.S.

  • Wartime History of Golf - JLC Jenkins and Royal Troon
    Wartime History of Golf - JLC Jenkins and Royal Troon James Lawrence Christie Jenkins, or JLC, as he was known, is the only Ordinary Member of Royal Troon Golf Club to have won the Amateur Championship. He did so more than 100 years ago in May 1914, at Royal St George’s Golf Club, Sandwich. In the final, he defeated Major Charles Hezlet, an Irishman from Portrush, by 3 and 2. The match was a relatively close contest between two men of contrasting physique. Jenkins was a small man described by Bernard Darwin in his article for Golf Illustrated as “alert, confident with an air irreverently described as perky”. Darwin reported that “there was a great deal of very good golf played and in the end a very worthy champion emerged in Mr Jenkins”. In the same year JLC was winner of the Silver Medal in the Open Championship at Prestwick and eighth overall behind Harry Vardon who won for the sixth and last time. JLC was born in Cambuslang and educated at Glasgow High School. The Jenkins were a golfing family: he was one of five brothers who were all scratch players or better. His brother Pat, who was killed in the 1914-18 war was a runner up in the Irish Open. His sister, Dorothea Jenkins, won the Scottish Ladies Championship at Lossiemouth and also the Ladies Championship of South India. JLC was a prolific winner of competitions and championships in Scotland and in addition to reaching the last eight of the Amateur Championship on three occasions, prior to his ultimate success at Sandwich; he was also a Semi Finalist in the Irish Open in 1911.

That effort sparked club secretaries, historians, architects, professional writers, enthusiasts – in short, a global community of MacKenzie admirers – to share their knowledge. This, the 16th Revision of “The Dr. Alister MacKenzie Chronology,” is the latest product of that collective and continuing generosity, and considerably expands on the previous revision. Why are MacKenzie’s whereabouts important? A timeline establishes a foundation of fact. Upon this foundation researchers can build their narratives of history. Without this fact base, large gaps in time appear, and speculation is the all too-common and unfortunate result - the quality of scholarship is impoverished. The ramifications can be significant - original design features and perhaps entire courses disappear or suffer disfiguration, writings are misunderstood or misinterpreted, attributions are missed or made improperly. As readers, as golfers, and as caretakers of the game of golf, we suffer.
