NFL Stars Flock to Tiger Woods’ New Cabo Resort as Neighbors

DAMAKORONKOWA - Nestled along the sun-drenched southern tip of Mexico's Baja California Peninsula, the prestigious Diamante resort destination continues to elevate luxury living and world-class golf. At the heart of this stunning landscape lies the Legacy Club, a private enclave where legendary golfer and renowned course architect Tiger Woods has claimed the very first completed residence.

As the creative mind behind the golf course itself, Woods has left a personal stamp on his property. His iconic corporate logo is seamlessly embedded into both the expansive driveway and the custom swimming pool. This residence stands as one of only 14 exclusive Founder Estates, which represent the sole homes situated directly within the boundaries of the golf course, though additional residential opportunities with panoramic golf views are planned for other sections of the expansive development.

Exclusive Neighbors and NFL Stars

Sharing the neighborhood with one of the greatest golfers of all time is developer Ken Jowdy, whose own home is currently under construction right next door to Woods' estate. However, Jowdy noted that finishing his personal residence has taken a back seat to finalizing the golf course.

Beyond the initial founders, the Legacy Club is attracting high-profile sports figures. Among the future residents are standout Cincinnati Bengals wide receivers Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins. Widely regarded as one of the most explosive and dangerous receiving tandems in the National Football League, the star players have purchased homesites just a few doors down from Woods. Having spent their recent offseasons vacationing and hitting the links at the resort, the dynamic duo has already broken ground on their properties within the invitation-only community.

A Legacy of Design at Diamante

The Legacy Club represents the latest chapter in Tiger Woods' ongoing relationship with Diamante. It marks his third golf course design at the resort destination, adding to an impressive portfolio that already includes:

El Cardonal: Woods' very first completed golf course design, which serves as the proud host venue for the PGA Tour's World Wide Technology Championship.

Oasis Short Course: A fantastic layout tailored for quick rounds and shot-making precision.

The Dunes: Designed by Davis Love III, this original Diamante course consistently earns high praise, currently ranking fifth on top regional lists for courses spanning Mexico, the Caribbean, Atlantic islands, and Central America. Meanwhile, El Cardonal holds a respectable 30th spot on the same prestigious rankings.

Unmatched Exclusivity and Membership Structure

The core philosophy driving the Legacy Club is absolute exclusivity. Membership is strictly capped at just 250 individuals and is structured around a unique multigenerational family model. This forward-thinking approach allows primary members to extend their privileges to spouses, children, and subsequent generations. A single membership can accommodate up to approximately 20 individuals, including children and their spouses, ensuring a lasting legacy for families who join.

Describing the vision for the community, project leaders emphasize that the enclave operates as an intimate country club set apart from the rest of the bustling resort. With policies enforcing strict guidelines such as no unaccompanied play, the destination is poised to establish itself as the most exclusive and private golf experience available in Cabo San Lucas.

Looking Ahead: Timeline and Openings

Golf enthusiasts, homeowners, and NFL stars alike are eagerly anticipating their first opportunity to experience the new course, which was crafted by Woods in collaboration with longtime design partner Beau Welling. While construction has encountered minor delays, the project remains on track for a strategic rollout that caters to its seasonal residents.

Originally, developers aimed to have the course fully grassed by the end of the year, but projections have shifted slightly toward a February completion target. Because many seasonal homeowners typically depart the region for cooler climates as spring approaches, leadership opted for a more practical timeline. The plan is to have the course fully ready for play by next year, perfectly timed ahead of the tournament season in October to ensure optimal playing conditions.

As construction races forward, the friendly competition between the developers and their star neighbors continues. While Chase and Higgins push ahead with building their dream offseason retreats, the community eagerly awaits the final touches on what promises to be one of the most talked-about private golf destinations in the world.
