JOIN THE WAITLIST
The Golden TicketYou’ve read about it in No. 29. You’ve seen the jaw-dropping photos. Now, here’s your chance to play arguably the best new golf course in the world. This December, 16 Premium members will spend the day at Ladera Golf Club, the ultra-private, Gil Hanse-designed playground outside of Palm Springs. Ladera is a true family affair—music industry legend Irving Azoff, Apple senior vice president Eddy Cue and their children collaborated on everything from the logo to the design inspiration to the membership list, which means that invitations are nearly impossible to come by. Impossible unless you’re a Premium member, that is.

FAQs
How many spots can I purchase?
You may purchase up to two spots.
Do I have the option to walk or ride with the caddie? And, should I tip?
Ladera is a walking only facility, with no carts on the property. All members will have a single-bag walking caddie.
The event fee includes the $300 caddie fee and $50 tip, but members are always welcome to tip additionally.
We will provide a few hotel suggestions following registration in the Players’ Room.
If I’m not selected initially, how I do I know where I stand on the waitlist?
A waitlist will be randomly drawn following the initial drawing.
Does my guest have to be a member?
Yes, all guests must be active premium members. The best way to bring a non-member guest is to gift them a premium membership.
Yes, almost 50% of event attendees are singles. Bring a friend or come make some new ones. Otherwise, you will be paired with another BTS member at random.
Can I request to be paired with another twosome?
If you have another person or team you’d like to be grouped with, please submit the request on the Guest Details form on the Players Room following your purchase.

Selected members will have 24 hours from being notified to complete their registration by paying. Failing to pay or notify us will result in loss of spot. All members not selected will automatically be added to the waitlist. Once someone fails to pay, or declines the selection, we will continue to select members at random until the field is filled.
