his and why Jack whose tal as a designer were over shadowed by far more legend designers like George lo or Robert Trent Jones The permanent site question was the easiest to answer the Canadian climate restricts Ibegolfscason and the hosting of a major championship res the course by who include the approximately tournament volunteer memb ers Committed to alternating the Open between Toronto and Montreal the found it Increasingly difficult to attract interest from topcalibre rscs particularly in Quebec where playing season Is even shorter The annual problems of inlng a totallydifferent volun
