How to Design for Elite and Average Golfers Simultaneously
It’s not easy to design a golf course that challenges elite players without making average golfers want to quit the game.

In this episode, OCM partner Mike Cocking sits down with Garrett Morrison to talk about how he helped reimagine Medinah No. 3 as a course simultaneously capable of hosting both the 2026 Presidents Cup and an ordinary Saturday four-ball.
