Irving Azoff and Apple SVP of Services Eddy Cue's Ladera Golf Club, in Thermal, California—which was named Best New Private Course of 2023 by Golf Digest—got a delightfully witty write-up on the Golfers Journal site.

“Consider your social circle,” the piece begins. “Think about that friend who is always on their phone—the one you roll your eyes at because you thought you were in the middle of a conversation, but they’re suddenly inside a damn screen. Now imagine that person on their phone roughly 42 times as often. And then, somehow, imagine not hating that person. Irving Azoff takes every call. And his phone rings constantly. Over the nearly three days we spent together at Ladera, the most radical thing to hit this dusty stretch of Southern California desert since Coachella, 10 minutes rarely went by without a call or text. At one point, as we rolled across the 300-acre golf playground he created with Apple Senior Vice President of Services Eddy Cue, I cocked an incredulous eyebrow at Azoff and asked, ‘Even the unlisted numbers?’ He grinned in the bemused way a parent looks at a child who is just learning to tie their shoes and replied, ‘You always answer the unlisted ones.’”
