According to the BBC, Tiger Woods has found a place to start earning his stripes in the golf course development business: he has chosen Dubai, a city affectionately called "One Big Construction Site" by expat blogger Samurai Sam:

World number one Tiger Woods announced on Sunday that the site for his first golf course design will be in Dubai. The Tiger Woods Dubai development will feature a par-72 course, a golf academy, 300 luxury villas, 20 mansions and an 80-room VIP hotel. "I am excited about the challenge of transforming a desert terrain into a world-class golf course," said Woods. "I have a vision of creating something that is uniquely mine and I want to realise this vision in Dubai."

I'm no duffer, but I'm guessing designing the sand traps should be the least of Tiger's worries. If there is one thing we can be sure of, it's that Tiger won't name the course "One Big Sand Trap."
