I guess you mean pure architects? Old Tom is in, as is Willie Park, Jr.

If they depend on a committee comprised of Gary Player and Annika Sorenstam, it might be a while before some of those guys get in.  Maxwell especially ... Mr. Player does not like severe greens  :)

I suppose that for now acknowledging Tilly as a Hall of Famer should be enough for those of us interested in golf architecture.

However as this is supposed to be the World Golf Hall of Fame, how can one not include Harry S. Colt?

It must be kept in mind that the elusive charm of the game suffers as soon as any successful method of standardization is allowed to creep in.  A golf course should never pretend to be, nor is intended to be, an infallible tribunal.

I assume Tilly will be drinking at the Scores Hotel while he's in town?

And who among today's crop are good candidates for the future?  Coore (can Crenshaw make it twice, as player and archie?)... and Doak should be shoo-ins.
