Stanley Thompson was Canada’s great architect, the designer of Banff Springs, Jasper Park, Cape Breton Highlands and St George’s. He used mountains and coastline as his backdrop and shaped bunkers with unusual flair against them. Robert Trent Jones Sr was his partner early on. Several of his best courses are public and still anchor Canadian golf.
