Who is developing Mars and why?

The figurehead of the push for Mars is Cedric Nelson, who came to the system's attention when he was chosen to lead the second planet initiatives' first colony on Mars.

The second planet initiative is a organisation nominally dedicated to developing a largely sustainable population of humans off world should a terrible disaster ever happen on earth. It has also incorporated several other groups who want to colonize or develop Mars for other reasons.

The nascent governing body of Mars (specifically Cedric Nelson) has developed a enough of a legal system where immigrants can own land on Mars by occupying an area for a year and a day (as well as a some other conditions)

While the money that can be gained by selling off a land parcel won't make a person fabulously wealthy it wll partially offset the costs. (144 million square kilometers available on the Martian surface)

Questions
How big is a parcel of Martian land?

What are the other conditions that have to be met for an immigrant to earn a parcel of land?

The lunar pro-am golf tournament is due to start shortly, what kind of event is this, a unusual local holiday, a massive sporting event or something else entirely?
