A little birdie told me the Golden Bear, Mr. Nicklaus himself, was in Toronto last Thursday after touching down in his G5. Apparently he was coming to town at the request of a developer to look at a piece of property north of Toronto for a potential golf course. Now, of course, Toronto really needs another high-end golf course, with Eagles Nest, Coppinwood and Bond Head all coming online recently.
It isn’t clear where the property is that Jack visited. There are several undeveloped tracts of land that were zoned prior to the government’s restrictions on the Oakridges Moraine. Could this be one of them?

For US$1.5 million per design, I think Jack might head out in a field if it were raining Titleists…
