Building The Greenprint: Where We've Been & Where We're Going - Episode 31

Leighton steps away from the usual interview format for a short update on The Greenprint, reflecting on how the podcast has evolved since launch and sharing the vision for where it's heading next. From its origins as a personal learning journey into golf course architecture and agronomy, the show has grown into a global platform featuring guests from five continents and a diverse mix of architects, superintendents, greenkeepers and industry experts.

The episode also explains the different strands of the podcast, including traditional interviews, The Process by The Greenprint with Thad Layton, agronomy-focused discussions, and the quarterly On The Tee series with Golf Course Architecture magazine. Leighton highlights some standout episodes, previews upcoming guests and projects, and discusses the importance of collaborations with organisations such as the European Institute of Golf Course Architects.

Looking ahead, Leighton shares plans to visit more golf courses and construction projects around the world, bringing listeners closer to the people, places and ideas shaping the future of golf course design. He also reflects on recent travels to Toronto and Minneapolis and outlines upcoming visits to Portugal and Australia.

Finally, the episode is a heartfelt thank you to listeners, guests and show partners whose support has helped The Greenprint continue to grow. Leighton explains why partnerships with companies such as Toro, Himalayas Golf and Shorehill Golf are built around shared values rather than traditional advertising, before inviting listeners to continue following the journey and help spread the word about the podcast.
