33 courses on Course Vaults

Doug Carrick is a Canadian golf course architect whose work has shaped championship layouts across Canada and beyond. With a portfolio of over 30 designs, he is particularly recognized for his ability to craft courses that balance strategic challenge with playability across diverse landscapes, from the mountainous terrain of British Columbia to the rolling countryside of Ontario.

Among his most notable projects are the three courses at Osprey Valley Resort—Hoot, Heathlands, and the North course (now TPC Toronto)—which collectively demonstrate his range and consistency. The North course was selected to host the 2025 RBC Canadian Open, marking a significant milestone for Canadian golf architecture. Other standout designs include Greywolf in Panorama, British Columbia, the Ridge at Predator Ridge in Vernon, and Cobble Beach Golf Links on Georgian Bay. His renovation work at historic Shaughnessy Golf & Country Club in Vancouver also showcases his respect for classic design principles.

Carrick's courses are frequently featured among Canada's top-ranked layouts, reflecting his influence on the country's modern golf landscape.
