Diamante Cabo San Lucas, Copala at Quivira Los Cabos, and Esperanza, an Auberge Resort, offer three distinct opportunities to visitors from the United States, not the least of which is the chance to live in one of the great golf destinations in the world. Cabo San Lucas is, of course, that. But it also offers fishing, boating, beaches and a rich culture. New roads, water treatment plants and new developments are springing up almost daily, and with them come even more golf courses—most notably, the new Diamante course designed by Tiger Woods himself. This is the first completed Tiger Woods design in the world, and it promises to be a great test for any game. Please see our feature on it starting on pg. 12, and our additional Cabo features on pages 26, 30 and 52. Another year of the BNP Paribas Open is over. The tournament once again saw record crowds of more than 431,527 fans! This event is the largest ATP World Tour and WTA combined event, and fans saw an amazing finish with World No. 21 Flavia Pennetta defeating World No. 3 Agnieszka Radwanska 6-2, 6-1 in the final women’s match. Novak Djokovic captured his third BNP Paribas title, overcoming four-time BNP Paribas champion Roger Federer, 3-6, 6-3, 7-6. This tournament and continued growth of tennis in the Coachella Valley and beyond was our inspiration to change our title to Desert Golf & Tennis. But tennis has long been part of the history and culture of our area, which is why we feature the historic Palm Springs Tennis Club in this issue. This incredible property offers 11 tennis courts, the superb Spencer’s on the Mountain restaurant, a fitness center, a hotel and an enduring sense of valley history. Read about it starting on pg. 42. Also in this issue, we cover Alice Cooper’s 2014 Rock & Roll Golf Classic, where rockers and others join in to raise funds for Cooper’s Solid Rock Foundation. Solid Rock, based in Arizona, is dedicated to making an everlasting difference in the lives of teens in the community. Learn more starting on pg. 20. As always, we strive to find unique lifestyle items for our readers, and this issue will make you sit up and take notice with our review of one of the most rare cars in the world. The McLaren P1 is unlike any other automobile, expensive and not a vehicle for the faint of heart. With a price tag of more than $1 million, this is a collector’s gem. See our coverage on page 64. And you will find our other lifestyle features, including must-have fashions and distinctive jewelry, starting on pg. 68. We are blessed to work in such an amazing region of the United States, with some of the best weather in the world. While other areas enjoy this weather only in summer, we have it year-round, and that is why we are able to enjoy a healthy, active lifestyle that includes tennis, golf and access to an array of fine companies that we are honored to promote and support. We thank our readers and the great businesses that continue to support Desert Golf & Tennis. We hope you enjoy this edition and the great writing and photography that we provide. Meanwhile, spring is here, so get out and play some golf and tennis! DesertGolf&tennis • AprilMAy2014 9 AprilyMay2014 18th Annual Editor/Publisher: TIMOTHY J.

Finally, however, the world is going to be able to check out the design prowess of Tiger Woods when his first completed golf course opens at Diamante, a very private development in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, later this year. While Woods’ previous course-design projects were stalled by the challenging economy of the past few years, El Cardonal is on track to be the first of five courses from Tiger Woods Design to come to fruition. Woods has taken a very, very hands-on approach with El Cardonal, visiting Diamante at least a half-dozen times. Reports are that he loves the place so much he now has a home there. According to those familiar with Woods’ design philosophy, the emphasis of this course is on strategy, options and playability across the board. In other words, there will be several options available to navigate each hole, and players of different abilities will have to make similar strategic decisions, regardless of which of the multiple tees they are playing from. “I set up the golf strategy to make golfers think and make choices,” Woods says of his design. “Regardless of your handicap, there are going to be different ways to play every hole. Angles of approach are going to be very important and will dictate the type of shots you should consider. I love this kind of golf.” Indeed. Word is that El Cardonal is reminiscent of the old-style California golf courses that Woods grew up playing and for which he has great fondness. Those courses tend to use bunkers and other hazards to force players to make a decision rather than as a deterrent. Natural, irregular contours on the wide fairways, as well as highfaced greenside bunkers will help enhance the course’s oldstyle look and feel. When El Cardonal opens, it will be Diamante’s second golf course. Already in existence is the Dunes Course, which DesertGolf&tennis • AprilMAy2014 13 onCover lies closer to the ocean and was designed by Davis Love III in a classic Scottish links style. Golf Digest recognized The Dunes Course as the No. 1 course in Mexico and Golf Magazine rated it among the top 100 golf courses in the world. The end result is that Diamante will offer two very different golf experiences, though both will be private, available only to members or those staying at the property. Opened in 2009, Diamante is a luxury real estate development and master-planned community on 1,500 acres located six miles 14 DesertGolf&tennis • AprilMAy2014 onCover from downtown Cabo San Lucas, at the tip of the Baja peninsula. In addition to having the world’s first Tiger Woods Design golf course, Diamante also has a mile-and-a-half of spectacular Pacific coastline. There are many options for those who hope to have a home here and Tiger Woods as a potential neighbor. Whether you want a residence high on Sunset Hill or just a short stroll from the beach, there are full-ownership home sites for you. There are also golf villas designed around the internationally ranked Dunes Course, and exclusive penthouse suites, airy condominiums located on the third floor of the Dunes Clubhouse. Diamante offers a shared-ownership in residence clubs as well. There’s the Beach Estates Residence Club comprised of homes with direct access to the community’s 1.5 miles of shoreline. The 4,800-square-foot homes feature five bedrooms, five-and-a-half baths and expansive outdoor areas perfect for entertaining and enjoying. When you’re in residence, you have access to the Dunes Clubhouse, practice facility and golf course, as well as to the health and fitness club and, soon, El Cardonal. The Dunes Residence Club is located on the second floor of the Dunes Clubhouse. The luxury two-bedroom condos offer spectacular views of No. 1 and No. 18 on the Dunes Course, and of the blue sea and Cabo’s equally spectacular sunsets. DesertGolf&tennis • AprilMAy2014 15 onCover The Resort at Diamante sits on more than 80 acres, 10 of which are devoted to an inviting saltwater lagoon. This resort is where El Cardonal will open come fall. Right now the resort offers a tennis court, health club, 25-meter lap pool, children’s camp and a restaurant. By the end of this year, the spa will be complete, a place where residents can enjoy treatments designed to heal, purify and soothe using local ingredients and time-honored traditional techniques. There are other elements in the works, too, including a full-on sports complex. 16 DesertGolf&tennis • AprilMAy2014 While downtown Cabo San Lucas is just a few miles away, residents will have plenty to entice them to forget the crowds and instead create their own ambiance and experience within Diamante. There’s an option to dine on superb cuisine under the stars in view of the Pacific, and those on the run can grab a casual meal after a round of golf or swimming in the lagoon. In sync with Diamante’s exceptional level of service, there are also on-course “comfort stations” that offer complimentary cocktails and gourmet small plates throughout the day. For those who don’t wish to go out at all, the concierge can arrange for a private chef to prepare dinner in the privacy of a residence. To be in Baja and not discover all that it offers, however, is to miss the compelling beauty of this region. Adventure and exploration abound, meaning active visitors will have no lack of things to do or try. Diving, snorkeling, kayaking, parasailing, horseback riding on the beach, ATV adventures and mountain biking all are close by. There are miles of hiking trails and there are sailboat tours, too. Los Cabos is known across the globe for its deep-sea fishing, and Diamante is just minutes from the busy marina where fishing boats come and go. In the best of all worlds, visitors will enjoy all that Baja offers along with the exclusive amenities and privileges at Diamante. And those lucky enough to become a member here will be welcomed back as extended family, year after year. ______________________________ Christine Loomis is a staff editor and writer with Desert Golf & Tennis By Clive Clark Clive Clark and Juli Inkster pro'sView I t’s not every day that one gets the chance to play with two world-class golfers, but I was privileged recently to do just that. First, I played a round with Harris English at Tradition Golf Club in La Quinta, Calif. Since the Humana Challenge event in January, Harris had stayed on in the Coachella Valley to work on his game. His game is extremely impressive, to say the least. On the day we played, he was ranked second in the FedEx Cup standings. He is a very likeable young man and has all the ingredients needed to take to take him to the top. During the ten years I played professional golf, I was fortunate to play a number of times with The Big Three: Nicklaus, Palmer and Player. Harris is getting near to that sort of standard so don’t be surprised if he wins some majors over the next few years. Although he has been a professional for only a couple of years, Harris has a mature outlook and believes in pacing himself as he faces the rigorous PGA Tour. While picking his favorite courses, his tendency is to play three events in a row and then take a week off. What is so good about his game? Pretty much everything. He exhibits what I call “smooth power.” He is young at 24, and his height, about 6 feet 3 inches tall, is a factor in his game. He has long arms and his arc is enormous. He is very long without any apparent effort—it’s just smooth power. Harris hits the ball solid and high. The “hang time” is immense, so that his tee shot and iron shots fall from a great height and marginally to the right. What’s wrong with playing with a fade? Not much; ask Hogan or Trevino! Like great players, he has terrific control over the shape of his shots. In other words, don’t be fooled by this gentle fade. When the pin is positioned hard left on the green, he has no qualms about hitting a draw. Tradition Golf Club is one of the very best courses in the desert. For that matter, it’s one of the very best courses west of the Mississippi. Harris showed some respect by three-putting a couple of times on the slick, smooth greens found on this Arnold Palmerdesigned golf course. Apart from that, his score of 66 from the tips (just over 7,000 yards) was immaculate. What shines through in a player of this caliber is his length and ability to hit long and medium irons so high that they stop on a dime. That gives him the ability to take Par 5s apart. Even though there were only 10 yards or so of run, Par 5s of 540 yards were reachable for him with long and medium irons. After watching his impressive play close up, I would not be surprised if he wins a major this year. He has a very solid short game and, with his length and high-flying long irons, Augusta National may be right up his street. No sooner had Harris English left the desert than I had the pleasure of playing golf with Juli Inkster at Tradition Golf Club and also at the excellent Madison Club, both in La Quinta. Juli is one of the greatest players to ever set foot on the LPGA Tour. She had 31 LPGA wins, seven of which were majors. Juli has been a stalwart of the LPGA since turning professional in 1983. She is also one of the most fun and charming players you could ever meet, and she is a great ambassador for the game. Her record and career are as admirable as they are lengthy. It is always difficult to choose your greatest victory; however, when asked, and after careful thought, Juli selected her 2002 win in the U.S. Women’s Open, when she shot 66 in the final round to pip Annika Sorenstam by two shots. At 53 years of age, Juli is still extremely competitive. She works out in the gym and is very fit. Her whole demeanor and game are extremely professional. She hits the ball very solidly with a slight draw, has maintained her length off the tee and chips and putts very well. Clive Clark and Harris English Compared to Harris English, who is over 6 feet and one of the longer players on the PGA Tour, a top female player gives away some distance from the tee. As I mentioned, Juli strikes the ball very solidly and averages somewhere around 250 yards off the tee. Her 3-wood distance is around 230 yards, so with a drive and fairway wood she can cover 480 yards. In firm conditions she could definitely reach a 500yard par 5 in two. Harris, on the other hand, drives the ball consistently around the 300-yard mark, with a 3-wood range of about 270 yards. In running conditions, even a 600-yard par 5 is fair game for him in two shots. That is the reason that men on the Tour play courses of around 7,200-7,300 yards and the ladies play courses of around 6,500 yards. One afternoon, Juli and I decided to play nine holes off the very back tees at Tradition, giving us about 3,500 yards on the front nine. Juli was right on top of her game and scored a remarkable 33 shots, three under par. Her putting was brilliant. As I am not the best of putters, Juli thought it might be a good idea for me to try her method. She putts with an over-length putter, which she ‘glues’ to her left arm, almost to the elbow. “Perhaps this is the answer,” I thought. But I was wrong. This method, which is also used by Matt Kuchar, is clearly an acquired taste. My efforts to control this unwieldy implement fell way short of average, and it felt somewhat like swinging a telegraph pole in the middle of an earthquake. I politely handed this unfortunate weapon back to its owner. So, we have here what one might consider two contrasting players: one doing extremely well in his early days of professional golf, the other an accomplished lady with seven major wins under her belt. How do their swings compare? Just look at the photos. Both have terrific swings. And wouldn’t you know the positions at the top of the swing are almost identical! ________________________________________________ Clive Clark is a sought-after golf course architect, former Ryder Cup player and a staff writer with Desert Golf & Tennis DesertGolf&tennis • AprilMAy2014 19 By Matt McKay Alice Cooper and the winning team M any of the players, attendees and supporters of Alice Cooper’s Rock & Roll Golf Classic grew up listening to the Michigan shock rocker, and likely took all sorts of heat from their parents about the hangings, guillotines, crazy make-up and other accouterments of the evolving rock and roll scene circa 1970. Those little boys and, yes, some girls who had the 1972 calendar insert from the Killer album tacked to their bedroom wall, and wailed “School’s Out” right through the summer of 1973, could hardly have imagined that over 40 years later, Cooper would still be relevant to the rock scene. Nor could they have predicted that Cooper would still tour regularly, playing before sold-out houses, or that he’d have attained a high level of mastery of the game of golf. Even less predictable would have been that they, his early fans, would become sustaining members of the rocker’s charitable activities. Alice Cooper’s nonprofit Solid Rock organization, founded in 1995 by Cooper and Chuck Savale, generates funds for Alice Cooper’s Rock Teen Center in Phoenix, where youth ages 12-20 become engaged in the arts via free music and 20 DesertGolf&tennis • AprilMAy2014 Sheryl Cooper with the tournament models Gameplay Super Bowl QB Jim McMahon and his team Scott Pasmore, Jim Chase and Alice Cooper dance lessons, occupational training programs and other arts-based classes. “There are lots of places where kids can go and just hang out,” says Cooper. “We’re essentially a free music and dance school, and I think that’s really what sets us apart. This is a place where kids can learn how to do new things. By helping kids develop a talent, and to help them create something from nothing, we’re really changing the way they think.” The center is the primary beneficiary of the singer’s annual golf tournament, which has raised hundreds of thousands of charitable dollars during its 17 years. Cooper’s wife, Sheryl, has also been a significant driving force in making the center a reality, and is highly active within the Solid Rock organization. This year’s event, scheduled for April 27-28 at Las Sendas Golf Club in Mesa, Ariz., is once again sold out, with 120 amateur players paired with 30 celebrities at a 3:1 ratio. The 2014 festivities include a night of memorable entertainment followed the next day by golf at Las Sendas. The Sunday night function has been titled “A Killer Evening of Entertainment with RoboCoop,” as Cooper puts his signature touches on the law-enforcing cyborg. The event also features Tom Arnold, Don Felder, John O’Hurley, Kevin Sorbo and Tommy Thayer, who will also participate in the golf tournament. This year, for the first time, the Sunday night experience has been opened to nongolfers. The additional 250 seats allocated to non-golfers are expected to sell out The celebrities came out in force at Las Sendas Golf Club quickly. To enquire about available tickets, email joy@alicecoopersolidrock.com. The Rock Teen Center opened in 2012, a culmination of Cooper and Savale’s vision and fundraising efforts. The two had long dreamed of creating a center offering artistic and technical pursuits that would not only enrich students artistically or teach them a skill, it would also offer them opportunities to be exposed to avenues they might not otherwise know about or even considered as a possible career. “Most of these kids have never been to a concert, they have never taken ballet, they have never played an instrument,” Cooper says. “I think everyone has potential, and we are trying to give them an outlet for that potential. And if you change one kid on the block, you end up changing an entire neighborhood. One kid who is trying to better him or herself has the power to change an entire neighborhood.” It all starts with the tournament. Alice Cooper’s Rock Teen Center is able to do what it does because of the tournament, and every fan-turned-player or playerturned-fan who participates each year becomes part of that.

It could even be called “The Adventure at Pechanga,” and who could argue? Go ahead. Wander about the hotel. Take in the new multimillion-dollar lobby renovation. The two casinos. The Round Bar. The wide variety of restaurants. And that’s just the casino/hotel. Once you’re loaded up and warmed up, get ready for one of the top cart rides of your career, not to mention one of the sportiest plays in Southern California. Rounds feature fabulous vistas, imposing oaks, water to be avoided, key decisions and, of course, one or two imaginative recovery shots. How guests utilize these amenities determines exactly how adventurous their personal journey is. “If a guest’s idea of entertainment is sitting by the pool with a cocktail, or doubling down at the blackjack tables, or seeing a world-class show such as John Legend, they can do that,” says Ciara Green, public relations manager for the resort. “We have a casino that rivals any casino in the world. We have tremendous spa amenities and we have a championship golf course. Any way guests wants to define their entertainment experience, we can accommodate them here.” DesertGolf&tennis • AprilMAy2014 23 playWorthy inputs, including an HDMI port, which allows traveling gamers to connect their consoles to the room television. Some find it shocking and irritating when upscale resorts charge for Internet and in-room coffee. They’ll be pleased to learn that these services are complimentary at Pechanga, along with the morning paper. The fitness center is also available to hotel guests on a complimentary basis. Suites and deluxe rooms aren’t the only accommodation options. Some casinos allow RV “dry camping” in their vast parking lots; however, Pechanga has the Pechanga RV Resort, which has also received the official AAA Campground designation. The campground provides all the amenities full- and part-timers require, including a swimming pool, general store and full hookups. Umi Sushi & Oyster Bar Noodles Seems hard to believe a resort casino less than 15 years old would require renovation. But it’s a reflection of the Pechanga Band of Luiseno Indians’ commitment to the property’s status as one of Southern California’s top destinations. The casino doubled in size in 2005. The resort also features some of the Temecula Valley’s finest dining, all in one 517-room tower. The renovated lobby features the new Umi Sushi & Oyster Bar and Blends Coffee & Wine Bar. Pechanga Cafe and Blazing Noodles are existing restaurants that received complete makeovers. The Great Oak Steakhouse, like the resort itself, has been named a AAA Four Diamond Award recipient for 2014. The lobby renovation, completed in January, opened up the entire area. The concrete floor was replaced with laminates, and the resort’s featured materials—glass, marble and stacked stone— offer the setting for the “Rain Curtain” waterfall sculpture, which rises nearly 50 feet to the lobby ceiling. The resort touts sustainable living, and nearly all of the materials replaced in the renovation were recycled, including the concrete floors and fabric from old lobby furnishings. The golf grounds staff also practices sustainability by employing the latest agronomic techniques. Should one decide to withdraw from the casino’s buzz and hustle, Pechanga’s guest rooms offer the perfect respite. Plush bedding, thick towels and a workstation aren’t surprising. What might be are the flat screen HD televisions and the technology panel included in each desk/work area. The technology panel includes USB ports for charging compatible devices, and video 24 DesertGolf&tennis • AprilMAy2014 Then there’s the Journey, designed by Arthur Hills and opened in 2008. The course is 7,219 yards (back tees) of creatively designed, challenging golf that starts on the flat before taking players up 300 feet, down 200 feet, then up 200 feet again before careening down to the finishing line via the 243-yard par-3 17th and 431-yard par-4 18th. Hills worked his holes around ancient oaks that frame and intimidate, and free-flowing creeks are a constant presence. Before heading to the first tee, it’s best to make use of the stateof-the-art practice facility with hillside hitting stations as well as a bunker practice area and a vast putting green, allowing for a comprehensive warm-up. Hills starts players off slow and flat with an eminently par-able 520-yard par 5, but there’s no reason to get comfortable. He turns the screw tighter with each hole before a 300-foot ascent takes players to the No. 6 tee box, where the entire Temecula Valley unfolds below, as does the 488-yard par 4 with its yawning carry off the elevated tee. Players meander in the hills until reaching the 574yard par-5 9th hole with its culturally sensitive area right of the fairway, now protected by a new stone-and-iron boundary fence. According to Green, stay-and-play packages, available at pechanga.com, allow for discount bundling of rooms, rounds, entertainment, shows, wine tastings, Old Town Temecula tours, horseback riding, mountain biking, hiking and trips to the San Diego Zoo. Of course, those activities may also be booked a la carte at the hotel. It’s all a matter of how much adventure you can handle. _______________________________________________ Matt McKay is a staff writer with Desert Golf & Tennis by Lisa Perry playWorthy One of the biggest misconceptions is that it’s difficult to get to Cabo. McCallen says, “Los Cabos has regularly scheduled flights from all major U.S. gateways, with carriers that include Aeromexico, Air Canada, Alaska Airlines, American Airlines, Continental, Delta, Frontier, Sun Country, United and US Airways. The region is also very safe, with good highways, busy downtowns and a very low crime rate.” GOLF Punta Sur (vidantagolf.com) The first golf course built in Los Cabos in 1987 is a family-friendly nine-hole layout conceived by Fonatur (Mexico’s government tourism agency) to broaden the region’s appeal. Punta Sur (“South Point”) is routed on gently rolling terrain, easy to walk and located within a resort development. 3,141 yards. $70 for nine holes. Puerto Los Cabos (puertoloscabos.com) One of the newest public courses in the region, Puerto Los Cabos, near San Jose del Cabo, will eventually become two championship layouts. For now, it’s a highly unusual composite course—a front nine by Greg Norman and a back nine by Jack Nicklaus. Enjoy the Nicklaus nine now; when both courses are finished Nicklaus’ 18 holes will be reserved for homeowners. $250 for 18 holes currently. C abo might initially conjure up images of gorgeous beaches and bright sun, splashed with some tequilasoaked nights. But the place. sometimes known as the “Fort Lauderdale of Mexico,” has become the golf capital of Mexico. Los Cabos (Cabo San Lucas, San Jose del Cabo and the 20-mile resort corridor between them) boasts no less than 14 championship courses and the upcoming addition of two buzzworthy ventures. Tiger Woods’ first-ever golf course and a new Jack Nicklaus Signature Course are both scheduled to open this year (see more on pg. 12 and pg. 30, respectively). Cabo courses have been singled out by national U.S. golf publications, two on a “Top 100 in the World” list, along with four courses listed among Mexico’s top five. Among the top five tourist destinations in Mexico, Cabo is also a superb destination golf getaway. “It’s a golfer’s dream,” says Los Cabos Tourism Board’s golf coordinator, Brian McCallen. “Los Cabos stands as one of the most desirable foreign destinations for traveling U.S. golfers. Cabo remains a place to relax with a variety of water and outdoor activities on tap. “It took several decades for it to become the tourist destination it is today,” says McCallen. “Dating back to the early 1930s, [Cabo San Lucas] was a small fishing village with abundant marine life, which put it on the map as a sport-fishing destination in the 1950s and 1960s.

From December DesertGolf&tennis • AprilMAy2014 29 By Christine Loomis playWorthy T he new signature Jack Nicklaus golf course, scheduled to open in late summer or early fall 2014, is just one of the coveted amenities available to residential owners in Copala at Quivira Los Cabos, at the tip of Baja California. Spread across 24 acres within the master planned community of Quivira, Copala is designed to be intimate, distinctive and private, yet to reflect the great warmth and hospitality of the Mexican culture. Thoughtful planning went into Copala and into Quivira, the vision of Ernesto Coppel, a highly respected developer and the founder of Pueblo Bonito resorts. At Copala, there is a focus on quality and on a reverence for the natural beauty and preservation of the Baja landscape. Located on the 16th hole of the first Nicklaus golf course being built within Quivira, with views of both the Pacific Ocean and the mountains, Copala, which is a full-ownership development, offers much to those who want a private retreat in a strikingly sophisticated and safe community just a short flight from many U.S. cities. The Copala development consists of seven towers with one- to three-bedroom condos, as well as freestanding two- to three-bedroom homes. Phase 1 is scheduled for completion in late 2015 or early 2016. Design of Copala’s buildings recalls the gracious Mexican-California hacienda style, with elements including native cantera stone, wrought iron and evocative red tile roofs. All of the homes will feature granite countertops in the kitchen, marble countertops in the bathrooms and marble floors throughout. Appliances will be of the highest quality, and all residences and condos will be wired for a private telephone network with accessories for data and Internet, as well as satellite TV. Layouts are designed to encourage outdoor living. Throughout the development, manicured gardens with local flora will add color to the surroundings, while well-maintained roadways make it easy for residents to get around Quivira or into downtown Cabo San Lucas. Among the community amenities planned are an organic garden in which residents can grow their own herbs and vegetables and a vineyard that will produce grapes for the Quivira winery. Owners at Copala at Quivira will enjoy access to the Club House and Beach Club, as well as to Pueblo Bonito Sunset spa and restaurants. Condos in Copala currently start at $250,000 (USD) and homes at $500,000 (USD). Quivira, the master-planned community in which Copala at Quivira sits, offers its own brand of barefoot elegance. Tranquil and sophisticated, Quivira DesertGolf&tennis • AprilMAy2014 31 playWorthy Pueblo Bonito’s six hotels—Pueblo Bonito Pacifica Resort & Spa, an adults-only luxury boutique property focused around health and wellness, and Pueblo Bonito Sunset Beach Resort & Spa, with 635 accommodations in hacienda-style villas. Both hotels feature an Armonia Spa, where therapeutic treatments are offered in exquisite surroundings. Copala owners will find Armonia an inviting place to relax, renew and be pampered. At the heart of it all is golf. No course designer has had a more significant impact on golf in Los Cabos than Jack Nicklaus, whose layouts spread from Cabo San Lucas to San Jose del Cabo. The PGA legend’s courses are among the most coveted in Baja, and now Quivira is adding two more Nicklaus masterpieces to the mix. The first will lie partly along the ocean adjacent to the Pueblo Bonito Pacifica Resort & Spa. More than seven of its holes will skirt the Pacific, providing a mix of stunning views and intriguing challenge. There is no completion date set yet for the second course; however when the two are complete, one will be private and the other will be for resort guests. While the beach at Quivira is not for swimming—as is true for many of the Cabo San Lucas beaches—it is for walking, strolling, savoring sunsets and arguably some of the best views in the region, especially in winter and early spring when grey whales are abundant in these waters as they migrate to and from the Arctic. Downtown Cabo San Lucas, just three miles away, is well known for its access to deep-sea fishing and its nightlife; however, it also offers quality galleries filled with local and national handicrafts and artwork—and perhaps the perfect piece to decorate your new Copala residence. There is much to do here yet nothing that must be done, and the utter relaxation and pleasure of that makes Copala at Quivira a place that will be easy to love and hard to leave. encompasses cliff top views as well as a three-mile stretch of pristine alabaster sand at the edge of the Pacific Ocean.

While most higher-handicap golfers play what I call “see-hit-andhope golf,” it is my experience that is not the case with players on the professional tours. Rather, these players move their clubs in reference to very specific paths throughout the swing. Takeaway Path In the backswing, I want to power the takeaway through my shoulder rotation in order for my arms and hands to move directly back on top of the toe line. There is a point in the swing when the shaft is level to the ground. If the club is on the correct path, the shaft should be directly on top of the toe line. Swing flaws can easily occur at this point if the shaft is either too far inside or outside the toe line. Set-up Path When setting up to the golf ball, I have a specific path that goes from the target in the distance back through my golf ball. This is called the target line and this line is the path on which I want my golf ball to travel. As I set up to the ball, I am standing parallel to the target line, establishing what I call the toe line; it’s this line to which my body and toes are aligned. The key to a good set-up is to tilt from the hips so the arms and hands hang directly on top of the toe line. This is important because I want my hands and golf club to move directly on top of the toe line in the takeaway in order for the golf club to be on the correct path for a straight ball flight. These lines are very important references in the golf swing. To help a player establish these lines, I often use sticks or clubs on the ground to serve as reference points. 34 DesertGolf&tennis • AprilMAy2014 Golfinstruction Forward Swing Path The setting of the golf club now serves the purpose of establishing what I call the forward swing plane or path. If you were to draw a line through the shaft in transition, ideally you would want that line to point to the golf ball/target line. This line is now the path of my hands in the forward swing. As I rotate my body in the forward motion of the golf swing, my hands will be on this same path as they move precisely in reference to the swing plane. You can see this in the finish of my swing. Transition Path The key to transitioning from backswing to forward swing is “setting” the golf club correctly. In order to keep the golf club on path, I need to execute the proper hinging of my wrist. The goal of this hinging motion is to precisely angle the shaft of the golf club so that the butt of the club points to the target line/golf ball in transition, depending on the length of my swing. The great Jack Nicklaus described this hinging motion as “feeling the weight of the club cocking the wrist for me,” so he could angle or “set” the golf club to the target line in transition By referencing these swing paths throughout the golf swing, you will have greater clarity and an increased ability to produce the type of swing that will help you execute your best shots _____________________________________________________________________________________ Rob Stanger, director of golf instruction at Alpine Country Club, coaches on the PGA and the LPGA Tours.

In the Coachella Valley, we have just that. His name is Harpo the Clown, and, yes, that is the name he answers to. What might seem an odd profile for a publication devoted to golf and tennis actually isn’t. Since 1976, Harpo has been clowning regularly at golf tournaments, celebrity events, tennis tournaments, hospitals and, if you want him, at your private shindig. Harpo adopted his name with the approval of Susan Marx. He had always liked Harpo Marx and his antics. “I have always enjoyed the gentler type of humor, such as [that performed by] Harpo Marx, Red Skelton and Stan Laurel.” Harpo’s friends have included President and Mrs. Gerald Ford, Frank Sinatra, Jack Lemmon and PGA professional Fuzzy Zoeller, among many others. If you are lucky enough to see Harpo’s photo album with all of his celebrity acquaintances, you will see that life has been good for a man whose career choice is a happy-go-lucky clown. Although Harpo never says a word, this writer has observed people stand before him and carry on a 20-minute conversation. Harpo, in clown attire, merely smiles and nods, or pulls out a red spongy nose and quickly pops it on their nose. “A lot of people like the fact that I don’t talk. Most clowns talk, such as Bozo, Ronald McDonald and Timothy P.” Harpo was born in Melrose Park, Ill. When asked his age, he doesn’t reply. When asked about his family, he quickly begins typing. “My brother lives in Chicago and my sister in Florida.” When asked if his clown work bothers his family, he types more. “No, my mother inspired us. My brother is a natural clown, but he doesn’t wear makeup or do it for a living. My sister and I trained and graduated from Ringling Bros. Barnum & Bailey Clown College in Venice, Florida.” The life of a clown is no easy task. It takes Harpo three hours each day to get ready. “It takes a half hour for makeup, 20 minutes to load my pockets and the rest for hair and clothing.” Very few people have seen 36 DesertGolf&tennis • AprilMAy2014 spotlight Harpo without his makeup, and even fewer know who the man behind the clown nose really is. Booked frequently, Harpo spends each day going from one event or venue to another. Sometimes he also simply shows up and entertains. When not on the payroll, Harpo depends on the generosity of the patrons to fund his expenses, meaning tips to pay for transportation and other odds and ends. Harpo has kept a journal for 30 years, and he is now in the process of finishing a book about his life, work and experiences. One of the many stories he has chronicled is about Frank Sinatra and a hobby for which he was not well known. “In the late 1970s early ‘80s, I would perform at the Canyon Hotel in Palm Springs. In those days, it was the hot spot for major events and celebrity vacations, long before all the other major hotel chains moved into the valley. “In the main showroom, Frankie Ford and Andy Angel performed a comedy musical act with Don Parks on drums. Robin Miller performed in the lobby lounge. Frank Sinatra and his friends had come in to see the Ford and Angel show. When Sinatra noticed me standing next to Tori St. John, he got up, walked over and (in mime movement with his hands) asked, ‘May I paint you?’ I was so excited that naturally I shook my head up and down. Yes! Yes! Yes! He thanked me with a big smile on his face then walked away. He came back a few minutes later and handed me a gratuity that I have saved all these years. I saved the gloves we shook hands with in a plastic bag and never washed them. Sinatra painted clowns as one of his hobbies. “A few months later, I was asked to perform at his granddaughter’s birthday party at Dominick’s Restaurant in Rancho Mirage. Back then, I only charged $35 for an hour show, so when he handed me a $100 bill I almost fell over. My friend Earl Chaney, Mr. Clown in Las Vegas, said he also did parties for Frank Sinatra. He recalls a time when he watched Frank sitting there, wearing a party hat with his granddaughter on his lap—just like any grandfather would.“ With a smile on his face and a bounce in his step, Harpo the Clown will continue to make us laugh and to wonder: What would it be like to be a clown?

During his tenure, he established himself as one of football’s most successful wide receivers, with a Super Bowl title, 589 receptions and 8,974 receiving yards to his credit. Shortly after his retirement, he accepted coaching positions with several high schools and colleges, and was ultimately hired by the Raiders as a wide receivers coach in 1989. On Feb. 15, 1999, his life changed forever in the face of unspeakable tragedy: His daughter was murdered by her boyfriend when she was just 20-years-old. From that point forward, he decided to devote his life to an entirely different cause, that of preserving her memory through the development of the Biletnikoff Foundation. The non-profit organization commemorates Tracey Biletnikoff’s life and untimely death by educating young women about the correlation between substance abuse and domestic violence, while at the same time helping substance abusers overcome their addictions, discover their talents and lead long, fruitful lives. In support of this mission, the foundation is currently raising money to establish a new home for at-risk teenagers of the Koinonia Family Services program, which is headquartered in Loomis, Calif., and has locations across California and Nevada. The organization provides housing to children as they recover from human trafficking and drug and alcohol abuse. To raise more funds for the home, set to be built later this year and known officially as Tracey’s Place of Hope, Biletnikoff and the Oakland Raiders will host the 10th annual Fred Biletnikoff Hall of Fame Golf Classic Invitational on April 28. For the first time in the history of the event, it will be held at Ruby Hill Golf Club in Pleasanton, Calif., one of the area’s most exclusive private country clubs. Opened in 1996 on property that formerly housed a winery, Ruby Hill Golf Club was the first Jack Nicklaus Signature course in northern California. It features a wide array of challenges for golfers of all skill levels, from elevation changes and water hazards to bent-grass greens and well-contoured bunkers. Although it offers golfers five sets of tees to choose from, it remains the region’s longest Jack Nicklaus design, measuring 7,392 yards from the championship tees. Autograph signing As usual, some of Fred’s closest friends will support his foundation and the legacy of Tracey’s life by participating in the Invitational. Among those scheduled to attend in 2014 are Pro Football Hall of Famers Willie Brown and Ted Hendricks, Oakland Raiders legends Tim Brown and Rod Woodson, and actor Alan Thicke, star of the hit television show Growing Pains. Actors and former professional athletes, along with dozens of amateur golfers, will play 18 holes in groups of five. Each fivesome will consist of four amateurs and one actor or athlete. Before and after the invitational, which is set to begin with an 11 a.m. shotgun start, participants will also compete in a variety of contests. After enjoying a continental breakfast, a majority of those participating will compete in a putting contest, which will award $5,000 to the winner. As the putting contest concludes near Ruby Hill’s 18th green, four contestants will randomly be chosen to participate in a $100,000 shootout after the invitational. The shootout will occur on the 18th fairway, giving each of the four contestants one opportunity to hole-out from 166 yards. If they do, they will not only win $100,000, but also receive one of three trips for two: a getaway to Scotland with four rounds of golf at four British Open courses, tickets for Super Bowl XLIX or tickets for the 2015 Masters Tournament. In addition to food and beverages offered before and during the tournament from vendors such as Ruth’s Chris Steak House, Cold Stone Creamery and Anheuser-Busch, there will also be a scrumptious dinner at Ruby Hill’s clubhouse after the conclusion of the shootouts. As they eat and socialize with one another, participants will also attend a live auction, during which they can bid on prizes such as a trip to Hawaii for the NFL’s 2015 Pro Bowl festivities, complete with ocean views from a gorgeous condo. Tipperary Crystal trophies will also be imported to the clubhouse, directly from Ireland. Despite the Invitational’s first-rate ambiance, from the delectable food to the live auction, all of the golfers have agreed to participate for one primary reason: to honor Tracey Biletnikoff’s life by helping thousands of young women overcome the challenges of substance abuse and live long, productive lives.

With tremendous foresight and a love for the fantastic desert weather, Pearl McManus, daughter of Palm Springs pioneer John Guthrie McCallum, founded the Palm Springs Tennis Club in 1937. Set against the foothills of the San Jacinto Mountains, the Tennis Club was built into the side of the rocks. The original grounds included two tennis courts, locker rooms, a large oval swimming pool, a clubhouse, a bar and a cafe. As word about the club spread, socialite McManus and her husband, Austin, hastily added a number of bungalows to accommodate the growing number of international and celebrity guests. Almost instantaneously, the Palm Springs Tennis Club became a popular retreat from the bustling world of Hollywood, an escape for the rich and famous from the prying paparazzi and fans. An invitation from Pearl and Austin McManus to the Tennis Club was highly coveted and included a weekend of tennis, swimming, downtown nightlife and perhaps a secret rendezvous or two. In the early years, actors Errol Flynn, Ron Colman and Gilbert Roland frequented the club. As the guest list grew, so did the celebrity status. Rhonda Fleming, Zsa Zsa and Eva Gabor, Dinah Shore and Kirk Douglas all were guests. Other regulars were DesertGolf&tennis • AprilMAy2014 43 playWorthy approximately $12 million in the Tennis Club, which included the building of award-winning Spencer’s at the Mountain restaurant. “Spencer’s was created to be a place of collective energy for the Tennis Club, a gathering place,” Matzner explains. “The concept was intended to be much smaller; however, we also committed to having it operated on a financial break-even and, as it turned out, it required a larger facility attracting people from a larger area to do that.” Currently, the property features 11 tennis courts (nine lighted), a hotel, pool and spa recreation area, a fitness center, massage facility and Spencer’s. This highly regarded tennis club is also a very active club offering lessons, tournaments and events, and it is open daily, year round. It boasts a waiting list for membership that continues to grow. However, what grabs the immediate attention of members and guests is the stunning landscaping that combines new flora with generation flora dating back to 1937. In 1939, the property was described this way: “With gnarled old mesquite trees shading the lawns, the Tahquitz stream Edgar Bergen, Red Skelton, Bob and Delores Hope, Randolph Scott, Marilyn Monroe and Frank Sinatra, among many others. The Tennis Club flourished and was eventually sold in 1967. The new owners, Harry and Elaine Chaddick, immediately started on an expansion of the property, adding more single-story bungalows, new amenities and finally the two-story Tennis Club Hotel. In 1980, the property changed hands once again, purchased this time by Watt Industries. Among the hot commodities in those days were timeshares, so the Tennis Club was converted into a timeshare property. The hotel was remodeled, and when it was finished it featured studios with kitchenettes. By 1985, the 25-acre resort was a successful sellout, prompting a group of investors and fans to purchase the club, forming the Palm Springs Tennis Club Owners Association. As with any owner association, there must be board members and directors. One such board member, as well as president of the Members Association, which manages and operates the tennis facilities, is successful businessman, philanthropist and Coachella Valley resident Harold Matzner. Though 44 DesertGolf&tennis • AprilMAy2014 Matzner has little or no interest in talking about himself, he willingly talks about the Tennis Club and its uniqueness. “This is a nonprofit tennis club and my interest in the club is and was to create a first-class tennis facility that takes care to include senior tennis members in their mid-60s, 70s and 80s. We even have a few in their 90s,” Matzner says with great pride. “We are very committed to our senior membership, with about 100 out of our 370 members in their 70s.” A tennis player himself since the age of 55, Matzner made an investment of bubbling through the grounds, and lofty palms leaning toward a clear oval swimming pool: the setting is one of the loveliest in California.” Fast-forward to 2014 and all one need add to the 1939 description is “Stunning beyond compare.” For more information please log onto palmspringstennisclub.com or call 760.318.1716. _______________________________ Françoise Rhodes is a staff writer with Desert Golf & Tennis By Judd Spicer La Quinta Resort & Club playWorthy T he sunshine across these courts is well matched by the luster of those who oversee study of their surfaces.

Set atop the bluffs of Punta Ballena (Whale Point), a tenminute drive from Cabo San Lucas, Esperanza has everything one expects at a Relais & Chateaux property—and then some. In addition to the 57 casitas and suites of the hotel, the resort also offers 60 privately owned villas and 36 private residences. Accommodations range from one to four bedrooms and from 925 to 4,000 square feet. Design elements include handcrafted furnishings, and rooms feature custom amenities, complimentary Wi-Fi and iPod docking stations, among other niceties. The grounds are equally distinctive, and everywhere in the resort artwork is displayed and appreciated. An open-air sculpture garden is one aspect of this dedication to Mexican and Latin American artists. The garden features 36 works in a peaceful, meditative setting. Throughout the resort are also paintings by well-known contemporary Mexican artists. Guests have a choice of dining options. Casual restaurants offer traditional Mexican dishes, American cuisine such as burgers and salads, or pizza. At Cocina del Mar, helmed by an Argentinian-born chef, a three- or four-course menu is offered featuring the food and culinary styles of North, Central and South America. The menu at the Lounge Bar & Humidor includes appetizers and light meals as well as specialty cocktails. But in the evening, there’s extensive tequila and cigar menu as well as entertainment. When it comes to activities, guests at Esperanza have an embarrassment of riches. First, the hotel offers access to four of the area’s most coveted championship golf courses, and tee times can be arranged through the concierge staff. Cabo del Sol includes a Jack Nicklaus-designed course and a Tom Weiskopf layout. At Palmilla, Nicklaus has crafted 27 holes of spectacular Baja golf, while Cabo Real features a Robert Trent Jones-designed course. Roy Dye designed the course at Cabo San Lucas Country Club. Greens fees range from $175 to $250. If it’s pure indulgence or revitalization you long for, the Spa at Esperanza easily delivers. Incorporating the elements of the surrounding landscape—water, light, desert and sea—spa therapies pamper and restore. The facilities include a steam cave, soaking tubs, a VIP couples’ treatment room, sunning garden, yoga and Pilates studio and outdoor showers. There’s also a salon and a full-service fitness facility. Esperanza offers a rich mix of cultural activities and experiences: Spanish and salsa lessons, painting classes, guided tours of San Jose del Cabo’s distinctive art district and a guided tour of the area’s top boutiques, whether the goal is to find crafts, jewelry, antiques or any of the other tempting items sold in local shops. When you have a shopping assistant, it’s hard to go wrong. Within the resort, each day or evening presents a new experiential opportunity. On one night it’s a celebration of all things Mexican, with specialty foods, strolling musicians and local artisans, with the night culminating in a spectacular fireworks display. The executive chef offers cooking classes, after which participants enjoy the fruits of their labor on the beach, served up with a traditional mojito. Professional cigar rollers demonstrate their skills and the cigar-making process, with private classes DesertGolf&tennis • AprilMAy2014 55 luxurytravel offered upon request. There’s an evening dedicated to the discovery of Mexico’s history of winemaking, the country’s wine regions and its wines, during which wine is paired with Baja cuisine. Of course, one must know about tequila, too, and for that the resort has a Master Tequilero who offers tastings and initiates guests into the resort’s Blue Agave Society. The Southern Baja region is near perfect when it comes to weather, with some 350 sunny days, refreshing evenings, low humidity and cool breezes. Average daily temperatures are in the 70s, with summer averaging mid-80s to 90s. Should you need a little extra cooling off at the pool, however, the hotel has a menu of complimentary “refreshers” on hand, including frozen popsicles, snow cones, fruit skewers, misters and aloe cubes. Hand and foot massages are also available. Although there are indulgences and temptations galore, Esperanza also has a focus on wellness and fitness. Complimentary yoga classes are offered daily in the 1,000-square-foot yoga studio, and all rooms include complimentary yoga mats and fitness DVDs. Recently, the resort launched an Auberge Trainer in Residence program, which brings in guest instructors from some of the top private health clubs and studios in the U.S. There’s also a fournight Find Your Balance wellness package, 56 DesertGolf&tennis • AprilMAy2014 which includes spa treatments, fitness classes, cooking classes and healthy “aguas frescas” drinks, the resort’s signature fresh and healthy beverages.

Copley’s on Palm Canyon This is the best time of the year to enjoy dining out in the desert because the seasonal residents and visitors are heading back home and you don’t have to make reservations a week or more in advance to get a great meal.

Copley’s opened in 2004 in the Uptown District in a small guesthouse that once belonged to Cary Grant.

The new McLaren P1 is sold out. Yes, all the scheduled vehicles for production were snatched up in pre-sale faster than the P1 does a split at Nuremburg. The next time someone tells you about the global economic downturn, just look them in the eye and say, “P1.” That will stop them in their twisted thinking. This $1.15 million vehicle didn’t even hit the street before people jumped at the chance to drop a heavy chunk of change on it. It’s a testament to the fact that the P1 may be the most innovative and exciting car to hit the market in decades, and it’s also one of the fastest production cars in history. That’s a recipe for true love. McLaren has only recently released the performance numbers for the P1 and they are staggering. According to the company, this beauty does 0-60 in under three seconds. There’s no slowing down after that either, with the car hitting the 124 mph mark in under seven seconds. The electronically limited top speed of the P1 is 217 mph. These are numbers that NASA would envy on its way to orbit. McLaren confidently touts them with the nonchalance that comes with being the world’s most exclusive supercar maker. The P1 makes the F1 look nearly pedestrian in its stance. Carbon-composite panels make the doors appear ready to fly off the hinges. Open them and you’ll see them rocket skyward, easily satisfying the true supercar enthusiast in you. The P1 seats two rather than the three that the F1 crammed into the small cockpit, and, as you can imagine, everything is where it should be. The downsizing stopped when it came to horsepower. The P1 punches 903 horsepower. How that comes from an eight-cylinder, 3.8-liter engine is magic akin to Merlin’s work more than McLaren’s. The gas engine is paired with a DesertGolf&tennis • AprilMAy2014 65 luxuryAutos 57-pound electric motor. Engineers put dynamite to the “box” and created a new system for joining electric motors with gasoline motors. The result is one of the most powerful pound-for-pound engines ever made for a production car. Keeping the engine under 12 cylinders keeps the weight low. The P1 engineers created a stiff aluminum that transfers power better than the aluminum in their F1 or 12C models. The P1 calls its quick-delivery power system the IPAS (Instant Power Assist System). Using the IPAS, drivers rush all the available electrical power to the engine when the hammer is dropped. Push another button and the Drag Reduction System (DRS) deploys an active rear wing to minimize drag. McLaren claims that 1,323 pounds of down force is achieved at 160 mph. This exceeds any other production road car in history. McLaren has taken extreme measures to save weight. The sub frame of the P1 is Kevlar and carbon fiber, creating a skeletal 66 DesertGolf&tennis • AprilMAy2014 luxuryAutos there’s always 2015.

The entire vehicle is only 3,100 pounds. There’s very little carpet, no sound deadening and the exhaust weights just 37 pounds. The P1 watches its weight like an Olympic wrestler. Climb inside this fantastic machine and you’ll find few frills. Seats aren’t plush; they too are carbon fiber with little foam for comfort, so you won’t want to take a crosscountry road trip in the P1 unless you schedule frequent stops. Of course, if you do, you’ll be hard pressed to get out of that diner without a conversation starting about your car. Or without attracting a crowd, for that matter.

We kid you not. Remember the punch line to the old joke, “How did the game go?” asked of member of a male foursome when another member died mid-course? He wearily replied, “Hit ball. Drag Harry.” At the turn of the 20th century, female golfers were prompted to a similar dilemma by the mode du jour: “Hit ball. Drag skirt.” This wasn’t the only handicap. Women also wore heavy stockings, whale-bone corsets, bloomers, petticoats, unmentionables and another must-have for the gentle sex: a heavy dose of smelling salts at the ready. We’ve come a long way, ladies. Susan Stauber, manager of Chico’s in Palm Desert, agrees. According to Stauber, the company’s new Zenergy Golf collection is truly a “game changer.” T Sweden, it offers contemporary orchestrations in white and black, including a vest jacket, placket shirt and cropped pant, all pieces tailored for an unbeatable, breathable fit. The Pro-Stretch fabrication provides freedom of movement that will keep active women comfortable to the 18th hole and long after the sun slips behind the mountains. At Desert Golf Connection As our desert weather is dependably temperate year-round, keep in mind that what you find on these pages aren’t seasonal must-haves, but all-season necessities. That said, as the summer surprises us with triple-digit spikes, you can always rev-up the intensity as you brave the elements on those cool greens with well-designed, refreshing water features. You’re not thinking of stowing your clubs until fall, are you? Introducing Zenergy Golf Collection Ticking off the flattering on-trend silhouettes, amazing fit with extended sizes, and easy-care fabrics that are designed for comfort, Stauber extols the new line for its versatility, adding that this active sportswear moves easily from morning’s 18 holes to lunch at the club to around-town errands. These are definitely must-haves when there’s no break in the action. The Zenergy collection includes the Zebra Foil snap-placket pullover with three-quarter-length sleeves, a nice pairing with the Golf Hannah crop pants in tan and an additional complementary color. Both are machine washable polyester/spandex. The versatile reversible vest can be worn over the line’s Zip Mock Top and Zebra Print Skort. All are machine washable polyester/spandex. At stores or online at chicos.com. Sarah Watermann, proprietor of the Desert Golf Connection, fills the racks, shelves and cases of her store with what are known as lifestyle concepts. “Golf is only one leisure activity, and carrying sportswear designed for that alone would be limiting,” she says. “It’s much more sensible to remember the cross-utilization of sportswear that is worn on the course and later on to dinner.” Waterman notes that every item should be machine washable, easy-care and travel-friendly, and she recommends avoiding items that must be dry-cleaned. Happy Hat Trick Avid golfer Eve de Jong loves the game, but her day job as a beauty esthetician prompts her to never leave the house without her washable, crushable hat with its four-inch wide brim by Wallaroo. This desert-must is also embedded with UPF 50+ sun protection, which blocks 97.5 percent of the sun’s UV rays. “It protects my hair and my face from the brutal damage of the sun,” de Jong says, adding that she applies and re-applies a cooling spray-on sunscreen during the hours she’s on the course. Made in America, the Wallaroo Hat Company was founded by two women in Boulder, Colo., who are committed to donating 1 percent of their profits to skin cancer research, education and prevention in the United States. Desert Golf Connection Get a Grip “My must-have for my golf game is a pair of gloves that grip the club for a stable swing, yet with mesh that allows tanning and prevents those ugly white ‘mittens,’” says Sandra Gilhousen, who lives in La Quinta. The Safari Tan mesh is perfect for that purpose and is trimmed with soft sheepskin Cabretta leather. Two styles: Full fingers, or open tips to show off a manicure.

Marketing efforts typically match a high-end watch with a celebrity brand ambassador or two, or even an entire sports team. The message is clear: wear the watch, live the life. fineJewelry Tag Heuer has a series of cross promotions with sports figures, including LPGA golfer Suzann Pettersen and Grand Slam tennis champ Maria Sharapova. The brand has also established a strong A-list celebrity connection with representatives such as Cameron Diaz and Leonardo DiCaprio. Sharapova’s favorite Tag Heuer timepiece is the Formula I Steel and Ceramic Diamonds. The 37mm version features steel bezels with sixty diamonds, ceramic inlay, scratch-resistant sapphire crystal and water resistance to 200 meters. It retails for $3,200. Tag Heuer’s Link Collection is notable and includes the ladies 29mm Link watch with roman numerals and a purple face that sells for approximately $22,000. This more delicate model is made entirely of solid 18K rose gold and displays a dial with eleven Top Wesselton diamonds. For the men, there’s the Tag Heuer Carrera Mikrograph watch with a price tag of $50,000. This advanced technological creation features 62 jewels, up to 42 hours of power reserve and two balance wheels that are able to have 28,800 vibrations per hour for the watch and 36,000 vibrations per hour for the chronograph. It has a central blue chrono hand that revolves fully every second. To be fully accessorized with Tag Heuer, buyers will want to check out the company’s new L-TYPE sunglasses in nine different models, with features such as handcrafted leather on the exterior and beta-titanium frames, priced between $1,190 and $1,340. Piaget luxury watches have been identified with the sport of polo for 35 years. The company’s Polo collection includes the Piaget Polo Forty Five Lady Watch in several variations. The 45mm, for example, features rose gold, titanium and steel with a black band, priced at $70,000. A 38mm version displays an 18K rose-gold dial with 386 brilliant-cut diamonds and a white alligator strap and sells for $68,000. La Ellerstina polo team in Argentina joined forces with Piaget at the end of 2013, debuting Piaget’s sponsorship and partnership. The members of the Ellerstina Piaget polo team include brothers Facundo, Gonzalo and Nicolas Pieres, along with Mariano Aguerre. Their black polo shirts display the Piaget logo. Soccer icon David Beckham serves as the Breitling brand ambassador, in particular for the 46mm Breitling Transocean Chronograph Unitime, appealing to world travelers and able to cross 24 time zones. Options include a steel or 18K red-gold case, a black or white dial, crocodile or leather band and water resistance to 100 meters. The price ranges from $30,965 to $57,775. The Breitling for Bentley collection—as in Bentley Motors—offers several models, including the Bentley Lightbody QP Midnight Carbon, which sells for $40,750; the Bentley Barnato Racing Red Gold (a limited edition of only 500 watches), which sells for $55,850; and the Bentley Mulline (James Bond’s watch in the 2011 novel Carte Blanche), which sells for $175,000 pre-owned. Hublot not only identifies with brand ambassadors in the world of sports, it has also added a charity twist. After partnering with the L.A. Lakers, Hublot made NBA star and known watch-lover Kobe Bryant its newest brand ambassador in 2013. It then unveiled the King Power Black Mamba, a nod to Bryant’s NBA nickname. The watch, priced at $25,200, is a limited edition of 250 pieces and features a sapphire dial with satin-finished, gold-plated appliques, a black snake strap and purple dial details in honor of the L.A. Lakers’ uniform colors. A portion of the proceeds of this watch go to the Kobe and Vanessa Bryant Family Foundation. Hublot previously partnered with another NBA player, Dwyane Wade of the Miami Heat, to create the Hublot King Power D-Wade. Wade collaborated with the brand to design the watch, which sells for $27,500 and features a dial resembling a basketball and a strap with a basketball netlike pattern. The micro-blasted black ceramic case and self-winding chronograph movement also has the black and red color scheme of the Miami Heat uniforms. Proceeds from sales of the watch—a limited edition of 500 pieces—are directed to Wade’s charity, the Wade World Foundation. Luxury watch branding is a competitive business involving careful strategizing as to which celebrities or famous athletes best represent each brand’s message and image. Ultimately, the watch has to fit your own lifestyle, with consideration toward materials, precision, workmanship and price. _______________________________ Alison Elsner is a contributor to Desert Golf & Tennis RETAIL OUTLETS ACROSS THE DESERT TAG HEUER Tourneau Fashion Square Mall 7014 E.
