With a couple of big tournaments happening on Adelaide a coupe of months in a row I felt it appropriate to get another interviewee from the driest capital city of Australia and this time I'm joined on the podcast by first time guest Richard James, Superintendent of Kooyonga Golf Club, in the lead up to hosting the Women's Australian Open in a couple of weeks time. Richard gives us a brief outline of what makes up Kooyonga GC and just how the course is shaping up for the national tournament and it's great to get an insight into yet another one of Australia's premier tournament golf courses.

Of course I do the usual run around Australia and New Zealand with a run through of a month on epic women's tournaments in Australia, some pretty interesting news coning out of public golf still under intense pressure in Sydney, the closing down of the 118yr old Corowa Golf Club on the Murray River, the opening of Huntingdale's new full course design, the opening of phase 2 of the KruseGolf and CDP design works at Royal Perth GC, along with a whole lot more.

You hit 'em clean and we'll keep 'em green!
