The CBC (Canadian Broadcasting Company) did a piece on the radio today about the Highlands Links, a good prelude to this springs visit.

Jeff Mingay among others were part of the feature, as was Cornish (whose stories were great).

I am hoping Jeff can shed light on whether there is a link online.

It was a really nice piece on Highlands Links and Stanley Thompson, wasn't it, Ben.

Joe Robinson, the long time pro at Highlands Links, made some great comments about the layout of the course, as did Mr. Cornish, and Lorne Rubenstein. I was flattered to be asked to participate.

I don't know if there's an internet link. But if there is, you'll find it at www.cbc.ca

Ben
Jeff Mingay wrote a great piece on Stanley Thompson in our magazine "Golf Architecture" which is the journal of the Society of Australian Golf Course Architects. The magazine can be ordered online if you are interested at www.ausgolf.com.au/ga
Hope you think about ordering it - there are other great articles by writers such as Geoff Shackelford and Peter Thomson as well.
cheers
Neil
