Dining at the 2016 BNP Paribas Open

Hungry patrons at this year’s BNP Paribas Open (March 7-20, 2016) will find more than typical sports-arena fare. Food at the world-class tennis tournament at Indian Wells Tennis Garden is all about elevated cuisine and upscale ambiance. Three restaurants offering wildly different food will share space in Stadium 2, providing an authentic restaurant dining experience, created custom for the event.

Local favorite Piero’s PizzaVino will serve up signature pies including the traditional Margherita; an artichoke, ham, mushroom and olive-studded Capricciosa; and the white-sauced, Italian sausage and caramelized onion-laden Bubba-Bubba. Also on the menu: the restaurant’s noted side dishes, such as ziti “pizzaiola” with tomato sauce, garlic, capers and oregano; a luscious lasagna Bolognese; fried calamari; Italian wedding egg soup and fried zucchini blossoms.

Highlights for the 300 spectators will be the exhibition games and matches that will pit the pro-am winners from earlier in the day against the stars, members of the media playing points against the stars, and the finale matches of the stars. And, like last year, play will be followed by an intimate VIP player meet-and-greet reception with food, drink, music and one-on-one autograph signing with the stars.

Building on the success of its inaugural year, the second annual Tennis with the Stars takes place March 8 at Omni Rancho Las Palmas Resort and Spa and Rancho Las Palmas Country Club in Rancho Mirage, California. Dovetailing with the first week of the BNP Paribas, this year’s event is expected to double in both attendees and sponsorships. Cliff Drysdale Tennis introduced the event to the Coachella Valley last year after having successfully produced its prototype in Florida, the Miami Open All Star event, at the Ritz-Carlton, Key Biscayne since 2009. The West Coast version will again provide an opportunity for 24 amateurs to take part in a round robin pro-am tournament, rewarding the finalists with the chance to play against and alongside several ATP World Tour top-10 pro players.

To date, this year’s players include:

Garbine Muguruza, the Spaniard-Venezuelan currently World No. 3, 2015 Wimbledon finalist and a player many expect to be the next big tennis star once Serena Williams moves toward retirement in the coming years.

here’s only one place in the Coachella Valley that features a Rees Jones-designed course. Jones, a member of the golf-elite family that includes his father, Robert TTrent Jones, and brother, Robert Trent Jones, Jr., has made his own name in the world of golf-course design and he has impressive credential to show for it. Known as the “Open Doctor” for his work on courses prior to major championships, his layouts can be found in some of the most revered golfing communities in the country: No. 7 at Pinehurst, the courses at Bear Creek and

Oyster Reef golf clubs on Hilton Head Island, the Rees Jones course at the venerable Breakers Palm Beach and the South Course at Torrey Pines in La Jolla. Easily able to stand beside any of them is the Rees Jones masterpiece at Andalusia at Coral Mountain, a private community in La Quinta, California in the Coachella Valley, an area well known for having courses designed by the greatest names in the game. The par-72 course at Andalusia is playable and beautiful, its lush fairways and bent-grass greens set against the dramatic backdrop of the Santa Rosa Mountains. Multiple tee options give golfers of all abilities a place of their own on this course, which plays 7,521 yards from the tips and a very approachable 5,489 yards from the forward tees. While community is front and center at Andalusia, homes do not crowd this course. By design, the course has exceptionally wide fairways, ensuring that homes and backyards do not impact play. The design also ensures that from hole to hole and round to round, play changes significantly depending on where on these expansive fairways you land. In November, the new clubhouse for golf members and their guests opened with well-deserved fanfare, completing the village setting that also includes the community’s expansive Racquet Club. Rees Jones, for one, believes that the new clubhouse pairs beautifully with the golf course he designed. “Every design element at Andalusia has been extremely well conceived,” he says. “The orientation, rhythm, beauty and the ebb and flow of the golf course I designed are unlike any other layout in

the Coachella Valley. Now that the clubhouse is fully operational, it is evident that this design element blends seamlessly with the community. It is stunning and comfortable. It feels like a second home.” The new golf clubhouse features a pro shop, dining terrace for mixed dining, and men and women’s locker rooms. Adding to the convenience, food and beverage service is also available in lounge areas of the locker rooms. Just like Andalusia’s equally impressive Racquet Club, the new clubhouse was designed to bring the outside surroundings into the interiors. John Cummings, general manager of country club operations, says, “The new clubhouse is spectacular and enhances the golf experience at Andalusia. The architecture is reminiscent of the great garden palaces of southern Spain and it was designed to maximize the views from every angle.” Andalusia is a community of active, engaged residents, some of them full-time desert dwellers and others arriving seasonally. All enjoy a host of amenities to complement the desert lifestyle, from The community also has a game room, Tennis, like golf, is core to Andalusia. social engagement to outdoor adventure. and active pursuits for members include The Racquet Club offers five hard-surface Tapas, Andalusia’s casual and fine-dining swimming and working out in the courts and three red-clay courts, to say restaurant with indoor and outdoor expansive fitness facility along with hiking nothing of four dedicated pickleball courts. seating and spaces available for private and biking the trails that weave in and All of the courts are lighted. dining and events, also offers winemaker’s around the Andalusia property.

Like the rest of Andalusia, the residences are a cut above—upscale homes designed by top architecture and design firms and filled with touches that make the most of the indoor-outdoor desert lifestyle. Among the features prospective home buyers can expect are private central courtyards and expansive patios with custom-designed pool and spa areas. There is little the developers have not thought of in this meticulously planned community that just keeps getting better. The new clubhouse is one of Andalusia’s crowning touches, yet this community is not just about its amenities. “We are really proud to offer our members world-class facilities with the valley’s only Rees Jones-designed golf course, a beautiful golf clubhouse and an impressive racquet club.” Cummings says. “But what really makes Andalusia Country Club special are the friendly members.” To learn more about homes, golf, tennis and memberships at Andalusia Desert Development Corporation and “Our membership stays busy with golf, at Coral Mountain, log onto part of the team that developed Andalusia exercise and fitness classes, tennis and andalusiaatcoralmountain.com or call at Coral Mountain.

In 2015, the airline took over sponsorship of what had been the Kraft Nabisco Championship and quickly went about creating a new image and complete branding change for the event. With a year of experience under their respective belts, and the branding basics in place, the tournament and the airline are prepared to take the tournament to a higher altitude. Tournament director Gabe Codding, who began his career with the event as a volunteer more than 20 years ago, says the tournament and airline have quickly created a comfort zone, and ANA executives are not only happy with what has transpired under their watch, they’re highly enthusiastic about the future, including the upcoming 2016 event. “I’ve come to enjoy [the ANA executives] as people. They’re really, really good people. They have a healthy respect for the history of this event, yet they’re very innovative and very excited from the CEO and the top down. The whole company is excited to be a part of this historic event,” Codding says. “Year one, they talked about it being very much a soft opening. They didn’t want to mess with any of the traditions. They said, ‘We just want to come and observe and kind of see where we can add value.’” Now it’s time for the full opening. “Year two is really kind of our grand opening,” Codding notes, pointing to some upcoming major announcements and large-scale exhibitions, such as the Inspiring Women In Sports Conference and events with Olympians in varying sports. “It’s all about getting kids and getting women and getting people excited about being in sport. You’ll see some updates to our champions junior challenge that will be exciting and will help grow that event, and you’ll see that theme of inspiration coming to life even more than you did in 2015.” Stacy Lewis By many metrics, the 2015 event was a success.

Desert GolF &tennis •February March 2016 41 The beginning of a new year gives each of us the opportunity to create resolutions and get back to mastering the simple things in life. Golf is no different. Mastering the simple things, including making solid contact with putts and chips, will help improve your scores—not a bad way to start a new year. For this lesson, fellow golf instructor Paul Bucy, from the Golf Academy at Desert Willow, joins me. He will address putting and I will address chipping

Improving your putter-face control Players often come to lessons wanting more consistency with their putting. The first thing I look at is how well they aim and control the putter face. Being able to control the putter face is critical to starting the ball on its intended line. Here’s a great drill designed to improve your putter-face alignment at impact. I start with a three- to five-foot putt and build a gate for my putter to travel through. I make sure the tees are aligned so that when I place my putter down, I can use them as a guide for squaring my putter face at address. Then I build another gate for the ball to travel through, approximately two feet in front of my setup gate. I want the gate for the ball to be in line with the gate for my putter. My goal is to strike the ball with a square putter face without hitting the tees, and to roll the ball to the hole without contacting either tee. It’s not as easy as it looks. I try to keep my focus on making a straight backstroke and straight through-stroke in between the tees, which helps me get a feel for the correct swing path with the putter face remaining angled to the hole.

If, when I make a stroke, my putter makes contact with either tee, then the swing path of my putter needs to be refined. If I make a good stroke and the ball hits either the right or left tee, then I learn from that feedback that my clubface is not angled square to the hole as I am making contact with the ball. I use this feedback to make necessary adjustments so that I can consistently execute a stroke without my putter or ball making contact with any of the tees. After completing this drill, I find that my own putting stroke is more productive in making those short putts on the golf course.

Improving your contact in chipping

To make solid contact with my chip shots, as well as any other golf shot, I start with my grip. How I hold onto the club has a lot to do with making solid contact. I like to position my hands in what I call a “square grip,” where my thumbs are positioned on top of the grip and matching the angle of the clubface, and my palms are “square” to the target. As I setup to the golf ball, I should have the feeling of being balanced and square to the path that leads to the target, called the target line. I can feel my weight distributed equally with my shoulders directly on top of my hips and feet.

In my takeaway, I like to feel my core rotate and serve as the power source that moves the golf club directly back along the target line. The purpose of my backswing is to store up energy for the forward swing. At the completion of my backswing, I want to feel a subtle hinge in my wrist, which helps create “lag” for the forward swing and contact with the ball. My key for hitting solid chip shots is this feeling of lag through impact. As my body rotates left in the forward swing, my wrist maintains its hinged angle all the way through impact. The shaft leaning towards the target makes the club bottom out underneath the golf ball, insuring solid compression between the ball and clubface.

ew homes are the big winners in California’s desert communities. We are seeing a boom in new-home sales in country clubs as well as outside of them, and in all price Nranges. Land and lot sales are also strong, and the most sought-after style for homes these days is contemporary. A new type of buyer is also coming to the Coachella Valley market. One area that’s red hot is Andalusia Country Club in La Quinta. Over the past six months, 35 homes priced over $1 million have sold in this community. Andalusia recently completed a new golf clubhouse, complementing the club’s extensive amenities that include a state-of-the- art fitness center, tennis clubhouse, community swimming pool, dog park and walking and bike trails. Five new model homes have also opened. They’re light, bright and contemporary inside with vanishing walls of glass that take advantage of stunning views. Andalusia features an 18-hole Rees Jones championship golf course, and there are plans to add a second golf course. Toscana Country Club in Indian Wells also had a banner year with 38 homes sold, 20 of them new. Toscana recently opened new and updated models with vanishing pocket doors, contemporary flooring and lighter finishes. The club offers two Jack Nicklaus courses, a fitness center, topnotch tennis and a stunning clubhouse. With the opening of the Ritz-Carlton, Rancho Mirage and all of the amenities that it provides, the community of Rancho Mirage has experienced brisk sales, especially in the Mirada area. Newly constructed villas and spec homes are available. Old Palm Springs has been a hot market in terms of mid-century home sales, but also with new homes modeled in the mid-century style. More than 200 homes priced over $500,000 have sold there in the past six months. Some established high-end clubs have seen a building boom, many with custom estates featuring spec homes that will give buyers another option. The Hideaway in La Quinta has more than 30 homes under construction. Madison Club has 12 homes. At prestigious clubs such as

Big Horn, Reserve, Quarry and Vintage, homes are now going up on lots that have been vacant for a long time. Buyers are coming from all areas of the country, and not surprising from up and down the West Coast, Southern California and the San Francisco Bay Area up to Oregon and Washington. It’s interesting to note that the age of buyers is also coming down as Gen Xers (age 35-50) join Baby Boomers (ages 51-69) in the search for homes. These younger buyers are looking for a family experience and multiple activities. They want golf and tennis but also outdoor pursuits including hiking and biking, as well as newly popular activities such as pickleball. They also want luxurious spas and fine dining.
