Walter J. Travis, world champion and noted golf scientist, visits Pinehurst. He praises the new eighteen hole course as unique in the country and a model for future courses. Travis, revered for his scientific approach, sees golf as enduring beyond fads and lauds Pinehurst’s design as advancing the game worldwide.
