    Bryce Swanson

    Bryce Swanson is a native of Crystal Lake, IL located in the northwest suburbs of Chicago, IL. Meeting a landscape architect and golf course architect in his hometown, he realized at an early age he wanted to pursue the field of golf course architecture. He graduated from Iowa State University in 1995 with a Bachelor of Landscape Architecture degree.

    He joined the staff at Rees Jones, Inc. in 2000 after working with two other golf course architecture firms. Since then, Bryce has been involved in the design or redesign of over 19 daily - fee, resort or private facilities throughout the United States, Mexico, Asia and Bahamas. Bryce was also the Co-Designer and Project Architect for the renovation of Atlanta Athletic Club, Highlands Course for the 2011 PGA Championship, renovation of Bellerive Country Club for 2018 PGA Championship and the design of the new, Ralston Creek Course at the Daniel Island Club, home of the Nationwide Tour Championship since 2009.

    Bryce became an Associate Member of the American Society of Golf Course Architects (ASGCA) in 2007 and was elected a Regular Member in 2010. In October 2010 by a panel of Golf Magazine editors, Bryce was one of three golf course architects named to "Golf’s 40 under 40: The 40 most influential people in golf under 40 years old."
