State Of The Game Podcast 57: Jay Blasi And Chambers Bay

Credit is always a fickle topic in golf architecture and in our brand name universe, more often than not the primary creators are generally overlooked. While Robert Trent Jones Jr. II is the architect of record, his staff obviously does most of the vital work while Bobby travels the world wooing clients. In the case of Chambers Bay, host of the 2015 U.S. Open, Jay Blasi was the on-site man who practically lived in University Place and sweated over the construction details. He's now on his own and involved with some exciting projects.

He joins Rod Morri, Mike Clayton and myself to talk about the course, the politics, the strategies and the upcoming U.S. Open. The MP3 link is here. The permanent link here. Or you can listen below, and wherever podcasts are provided.
