Jack Nicklaus: Building the Nicklaus Signature | Part 2 of 3 | The Great Golf Architects

Jack Nicklaus had proven he could design championship golf courses.

Now his architectural ideas were about to travel around the world.

In Part Two of our Jack Nicklaus story, we follow the Golden Bear from the early solo designs of Glen Abbey and Shoal Creek through the high desert of Las Campanas and the spectacular coastlines of Cabo del Sol and Punta Espada.

Along the way, we explore the evolution of the Nicklaus design philosophy—strategy, risk and reward, approach angles, championship challenge and an increasing emphasis on playability for golfers of different abilities.

We also examine how one man's architectural career grew into Nicklaus Design, a global organization responsible for hundreds of golf courses around the world.
