Fred Couples Since joining the professional tour in 1980, Fred Couples has dazzled the golfing public with his immense natural talent for the game. Employing a wonderfully rhythmic swing that seems to involve little more than lifting the club and dropping it on the ball, Couples produces a startling combination of power and finesse. When he is at his best, alternating 280-yard three-woods and pinpoint wedges that leave the ball dancing around the flag, he makes the most frustrating of games look almost too easy. But beneath Couples' carefree gait and relaxed demeanor is a focused athlete whose genuine modesty has charmed galleries all over the globe. "Fred's swing mirrors his personality, relaxed and effortless," says sportscaster Jim Nantz. Couples has captured the imagination of the golfing public by achieving the highest level of performance while staying faithful to a style that is all his own. And he has chosen a timepiece whose performance and style are every bit as impressive. Rolex. ROLEX Rolex Oyster Perpetual Day-Date in 18kt gold with matching "President" bracelet.

Rolex is the presenting sponsor of the Golf Digest Collegiate Invitational. Over two-thirds of the world's surface are covered by oceans. One- fifth of the remaining land is desert. These figures are of special interest to Dr. Farouk El-Baz, whose native Egypt is 96 per cent desert. Dr. El-Baz attempts to redress our limited knowledge of deserts - of their origins, their expansion, their possible reclamation. His task is enormous, for even a single desert cannot be covered in one researcher's lifetime. But, Dr. El-Baz, a geologist who emphasises the global picture, has aero- space technology on his side. Indeed, it was photographs of the wind- swept surface of Mars that first prompted Dr. El-Baz to say "It looks like the desert of my childhood in Egypt." Poring over Sahara pictures taken from space, he found subtleties that the geological maps cannot show: three distinct bands of colour splitting the desert into dif- ferent zones. One of these, an earthy-yellow zone, was good, fertile soil, ripe for reclama- tion - and undetected through- out 7,000 years of Egypt's history. Again, comparing space pictures that were taken at ten- year intervals, Dr. El-Baz saw that sand dunes, like glaciers, have predictable movements - vital knowledge for siting often buried desert roads. Analysis of global weather patterns and regional topography has led him to state, quite simply, "Deserts are not caused by goats eating the shrubbery. It's lack of rain coupled with wind erosion that we should be blaming. It's scientifically evident that desertification is more affected by solar cycles than by man." After many expeditions his understanding is growing. Aerospace technology is help- ing him uncover the mysteries of the past. As for the present, he depends on the precise tech- nology of Rolex. In the searing heat and the dust storms of Earth's most deso- late regions, Dr. Farouk El-Baz has found his Rolex - like the desert - to be predict- able. And enduring.
