Robert Trent Jones

Robert Trent Jones, Sr. (1906-2000) was a legendary golf course designer with over 500 golf courses to his credit. Born in 1906 in Ince, England, he immigrated to the USA in 1911. Trinity continues his legacy with the 1994 designed Fox Hollow golf course.

Jones believed that golf should be a no risk, no reward sport. His golf courses challenge golfers to take risks and engage in daring play.  He continued designing golf courses well into his later years and died just short of his 94th birthday.
