A Golf Course in the Mojave?

In this month’s issue of National Geographic there is a photograph of a golf course in the Mojave Desert. (The article itself concerns the drought in the West.) Why on Earth would anyone want to build a golf course in the middle of the desert, and why would they then try to make it look like Scotland? It seems to me that the challenge of a desert course would be that it has no grass.
