Jones, who was referred to as the “Open Doctor” during his appearance for his extensive work on U.S. Open courses, discussed the recent Ryder Cup and the work he has done at many of the nation’s most recognizable facilities.
He also shined a spotlight on the work architects do each day adapting to the changing needs of golfers and the focus placed on the next generation of participants through the First Tee program.
