Tavistock Cup - Albany Bahamas Resort?

A younger Golfmeister on Queenwood's #18 Tee


Someone invited me down to the Tavistock Cup in March 14-15 at Isleworth (Tiger's old home course). For the first time there are now 4 clubs involved instead of the same 2, Isleworth and Lake Nona. Queenwood the DMK design in Surrey, England and the brand new Albany Bahamas are bringing teams loaded with stars.

Having never heard anything about Albany before 2 weeks ago, how did a golf course with Ernie Els and Tiger Woods' names attached to the super luxury resort fly under the radar?... Bellow is some info I found on the tournament website.

ABOUT ALBANY
Albany is a new luxury resort community created by Tavistock Group, Tiger Woods and Ernie Els. Nestled among approximately 600 oceanfront acres on the southwestern end of New Providence in The Bahamas, Albany is conveniently located seven minutes and five miles from Nassau’s international airport. Albany features an array of residential offerings and amenities for all members of the family, including a well- appointed boutique hotel, a 71-slip mega-yacht marina, an Ernie Els-designed golf course, a fitness center and spa, an adult pool and bar, a family water park, a kids’ clubhouse and casual and fine dining restaurants. Albany's deep-water marina is being designed and built to aesthetically rival the great resort ports of the world. For information about Albany, visit
