Gordon Desmond Muirhead (March 23, 1923 – May 2, 2002) was an English-born American golf course designer.

Early life

Desmond Muirhead was born on March 23, 1923, in Norwich, England.[1] He graduated from the University of Cambridge, the University of British Columbia and the University of Oregon.[1]

Career

Muirhead designed many golf courses, including the Dinah Shore Tournament Course at the Mission Hills Country Club in Rancho Mirage, California.[2] With Jack Nicklaus, he designed Muirfield Village in Dublin, Ohio.[2]

According to the Honolulu Advertiser, he "became one of the most respected golf course designers" in the United States.[1] An article in Golf Digest suggested that Muirhead "showed chutzpah in drawing inspiration from art, literature and Mother Nature but went off the deep end with fish bunkers and mermaid holes."[3]

Personal life and death

Muirhead had a wife, Helen, and three daughters.[1] They resided in Newport Beach, California, where he died on May 2, 2002.[1]
