Why did the great #StanleyThompson always start with his par-3s when designing a course? http://t.co/8raPPyr6sC @TheGolfCanada @pgaofcanada

Highland Links, Ingonish Beach, Nova Scotia [Hole #3]

The course is never rigid; it's in a constant state of movement. The distances and arrangement of holes change the character from day to day

[Jeff Mingay @jeff_mingay]

All things considered, Capilano very well might be the smartest routing in the history of #golfarchitecture (to date) #stanleythompson

The Highland Links, Hole #15........It's almost like the views of the sea were meant to be seen from a golf course

[Stanley Thompson @Toronto_Terror]

Nature must always be the architect's model..... The golf course should fit the terrain
