Join me as I interview Golf Course Superintendent Josh Lewis and talk about the 2015 US Open.
Episode #12 of the TZP goes deep diving with Josh Lewis. From starting out in the business in Oregon, working at the famed Bandon Dunes Resort, moving on to Pasatiempo CC and then to Chambers Bay… the site of the 2015 US Open, we cover Josh’s footsteps. And we go deep into the backstory of Chamber’s Bay.
Josh has an easy style. And we think you will love this interview as much as he loves the business.

Another great podcast…Renditions sounds like a similar site as Chamber’s, but in the mid-Atlantic states. I had much more fescue a few years ago on some holes which looked awesome to me. But golf cart tracks killed it for me… I thought Chambers nailed it for the most part. So many golfers complained to me about last years U.S Open and even at Pinehurst. I just don’t get it. Play it as it lies and stop complaining. If they were true golfers, all ball marks would be fixed and the sand traps would be raked when exiting the bunker. What happened to this type?
