GOLFING THE GLOBE

Talk about a dream incentive for golfers: 88 guests took the ride of a lifetime last fall, circling the globe by private jet and making stops at eight of the world's best courses. A full-time golf director prearranged tee times and had the players' clubs waiting for them upon arrival at each course. The 24-day trip, which cost $39,800 per golfer, was organized by Intrav, a St. Louis-based deluxe tour operator.
