Tiger will be designing his first US golf course soon in his attempt to become the richest guy ever ever ever.

Lucky for me, the coarse is about 20 minutes away, maybe if I start saving now I can play a round when I retire.

I can only imagine what it might cost to golf eighteen holes at that course.

But Coop I think you'd have to wait til retirement to play the course is because you'd have to make reservations for a tee time months or years in advance I would think.

I think that would intimidate the hell out of me, playing on a course designed by the world's best golfer.

I really hope the owners don't set asshole greens fees. The Robert Trent Jones Golf Trail has as much business as it does for a reason.

They have to. Who's gonna want to play at the Tiger Woods course? Everyone!

One 18 hole course and a billion people want in... you have to jack the price up.

I'm picturing a circular lake 500 yards in diameter. Now I'm picturing a 15 foot wide floating green right in the middle of it. And there's sharks in the water... with freakin' laser beams. First hole. Par 3.

On hole #2 the quicksand and cannibals come into play...

The area being mentioned where the course will be built, "The Cliffs" is the playground for the rich. So the fees will be outrageous and a lot of those fees will be paid by corporations whom allow their CEOs and sales team to entertain customers.

And I'm sure he's getting a positively stupid amount of money for it. The article also said that he's getting $25 million to design a course in Dubai. That is a positively sick amount of money.

I guess that baby's gotta eat. And have designer golf clubs.

The strange thing about Tiger is that he is much more popular in Dubai and in China than he is in America. He plays a tournament in China that guarantees him something around 15 to 20 million just to play regardless of where he finishes. His name lends credence to the tournament in that country.

Wow, and he's already pretty popular here.

I wanna be like Tiger when I grow up. Except without the skinny Swedish wife, of course. This girls door only swings one way, thanks.

Mostly the rich part. I want the rich part.
