When Donald Trump saw the TravelGolf.com list of the Top-10 golf courses in Southern California, he called up to ask why his Trump National L.A. isn't on the list. After an up-close look, West Coast Bureau Chief Chris Baldwin believes Trump's spectacular course is a contender for Top-10 status in 2007, though not necessarily a shoe-in. Still, Trump National is a unique, theatrical course built to stun, and is a course the majority of golfers in California won't want to miss.

During that time he became her coach, mentor, friend and "a member of the family," Jennifer Mario writes in her latest "A Girl's-Eye View" column. Years of lessons, weeks on the road, hours in the car and lots of pressure at tournaments gave Gilchrist a pretty good idea of what Michelle is made of.

The modern feel of the layout will impress you, but the level of play will keep you challenged. Harbourside is no normal, take-it-easy resort course but those who play it aren't scared away by its toughness, and keep coming back for more.
