You are the reincarnation of Bobby Jones. You have the respect, standing, influence and finances necessary to establish a series of four competitions to determine the best and most complete amateur golfer in the world each year. You have the influence to open doors and Rye, Swinley Forest, Cypress Point, Seminole and the like are all for consideration - even Kerry Packer's private course in Australia. And of course, you can alter the calendars of each and every golf association to ensure that you can play your events exactly when you want to knowing that all the best players will be competing.
You could simply make it possible for the cream of amateur golf to compete in the Amateur Championships of the USA, Britain, Australia and, say, South Africa. Perhaps you would prefer to stage stroke-play tournaments on each of a links course, parkland course, mountain course and jungle course. Perhaps you would like to hold the tournaments at different seasons of the year, a British links in winter, Florida at its most humid, an Egyptian desert course in dry heat and an Andean high altitude course to test the physical condition of the players. Or, you might wish to test the golfers' skills against the very different tests set by four very different architects, Mackenzie, Trent Jones, Dye and Doak, for example. I jest, but I'm sure you get the idea.
What would your format be?
How would you select the competitors?
Which courses would you choose for the events?
How would you set up these courses?
Would they be the same courses year after year or would you use lots of different ones?
What different facets of the players' techniques and temperaments are you testing?
