Ross Perrett

With over 25-years of experience in golf course design and qualifications in architecture, landscape architecture, and turf management, Ross Perrett is one of the world's most highly qualified golf course architects. He also brings an understanding of the wider context of golf course design, including resort planning, integrated residential development, and landscape design.

Ross Perrett joined the prolific Thomson & Wolveridge design team in the 1980s, becoming a partner a few years later and then company principal with Peter Thomson when Mike Wolveridge left the firm. With the retirement of Peter Thompson in 2016, Ross became the principal and lead designer of Thompson Perrett Golf Designs.

One of Ross's key interests is in the increasingly important area of environmental responsibility, and this has seen him striving to create courses that are sustainable, sensitive to their setting, and require less maintenance. His knowledge on these issues is often sought by conference and seminar organizers, and he has used his expertise around the world to help raise awareness in the golfing community.

Ross is a member and past president of the Society of Australian Golf Course Architects and is widely regarded as one of the industry's innovators, leading the adoption of both new technologies and landscape design concepts throughout the region and beyond.
