GOLF CARD (8/29/01)


FULL STORY:

For three hundred bucks a year you expect a lot from a credit card. The new Diners Club Carte Blanche Card has now created an exclusive golf access package for the well heeled. Executive Golf Club gives cardholders access to more than 200 of the world's most prestigious private, semi-private, and upscale public golf courses, like St. Andrews Old Course and Hotel in Scotland and Poipu Bay Golf Club (host of the 2001 PGA Grand Slam of Golf) in Hawaii. Members simply contact the Carte Blanche Executive Golf Club at least 72 hours in advance to arrange a tee-time on one of the legendary courses. Executive Golf Club membership is automatic upon becoming a Carte Blanche cardholder. Members receive a complimentary tee reservations service, use of member facilities and a leather-bound directory detailing each participating course. Exclusive courses from every corner of the world participate, including the following:

  • San Roque Club in Spain
  • Steenberg Country Hotel & Golf Course in South Africa
  • Iguassu Golf Club & Resort in Brazil
  • The Old Course, Vilamoura in Portugal
  • The Revere at Anthem in Nevada
  • TPC at Canyons in Florida

Once the tee time has been arranged, Cardmembers just present the Executive Golf Club membership card to the staff on site, and relevant green fees will appear on Cardmembers' Carte Blanche Card. For more information visit: http://www.carteblanchecard.com.
