Tiger Woods Latest Golf Course Design Project In Mexico Financed By Red McCombs

Tiger Woods has designed a golf course on a spectacular piece of land on the Pacific coast, just south of Ensenada, Mexico south of San Diego. It is called Punta Brava (Wild Point) and is a $100 million project financed by entrepreneur and former NFL and NBA owner Red McCombs.

“When this was brought to me, I wasn’t especially turned on,” McCombs said. Then they told me there was a good chance that Tiger would be involved. I said, ‘Forget it. It’s over. I’m in.”‘

Woods, clutching a display pointer, stood next to an artist’s rendering of the Punta Brava proposal - scheduled to be completed in about three years - and described something that sounded like it could eventually become the Pebble Beach of Mexico. Pebble Beach of California, of course, is public. Punta Brava will not be.

Woods talked about the elevation on the peninsula that drops from a peak to ledges for villas and homes that overlook a golf course near sea level. That course, Woods said, would have an ocean view from every tee, fairway and green.
