Architect
Robert Trent Jones Jr
Robert Trent Jones Jr., born in 1939 in Montclair, New Jersey, is an American golf course architect and the elder son of Robert Trent Jones Sr. He studied at Yale University before joining his father's design firm and eventually founding his own practice, Robert Trent Jones II. Over more than five decades he has built courses on six continents, developing a design philosophy that emphasizes strategic variety, playability for golfers of all skill levels, and sensitivity to natural landscapes, from mountain terrain to oceanfront sites. His work in the United States includes Poipu Bay in Hawaii and Chambers Bay in Washington, a U.S. Open venue, while his international commissions have taken him across Europe and Asia, extending the reach of American golf design well beyond his father's already global footprint.
