The hotel was run by Haupt's Mob client Lou Rosanova. Known as "Lou the Tailor," Rosanova was put there by Chicago Outfit bosses. The club was a popular vacation spot for Chicago Mob boss Sam Giancana and other underworld figures, Haupt said.

"That made it the perfect place," - Haupt said of the golf course. "Bring him here where they can keep an eye on him."

This is no ordinary golf label "- he said.
