Get some golf tips from Swedish pro golfer Annika Sorenstam in August during a weekend stay at the Ritz-Carlton Lake Tahoe in Truckee, Calif.

Guests will get to schmooze with Sorenstam during a private reception and receive a 90-minute group coaching session during their stay. Guests stay at the Ritz-Carlton, but golf clinics will be held at the nearby Old Greenwood golf course.

Sorenstam, now 44, was the first player in the Ladies Professional Golf Assn. to win more than $20 million during her career. She retired at the end of the 2008 season with wins in 72 LPGA tournaments. She’s also a member of the World Golf Hall of Fame.
