Golf Course Review Pebble Beach Golf Links Pebble Beach California

Reviewed by: mcantos, lake forest

Played Pebble on January 13 and was a little concerned about the weather with a chance of rain, but to my delight there was no rain and the weather was beautiful.  That is if you like overcast and 50 degree weather.

My caddie was Jerry Franklin and he was a great guy. From all the reviews that I read about the course they were all spot on. I was paired with 2 other guys from Seattle and their families. At times there were about 10 people with us but everyone was very respectful.

The course was in great shape and you can see workers setting up stands for AT&T. The rough was a little challenging because I was playing a yellow Srixon and it made it difficult to find sometimes. The course is tougher to walk than most people think especially if you’re taking a cart because of the walking back and forth. I was in the bunker on two when Jerry to said hit only 160 because of another bunker/hazard and the sand was pristine. On 7, I had a 60 degree from 95 yards and was in the bunker to the right, I was very fortunate to save par from there.

The greens were fast at times and slower at times and there were more breaks than I realized.

All 18 holes to me were standout and it was enjoyable time that I will never forget. It’s a shame they don’t allow you to play the course without staying there but If you ever get the chance I highly recommend it.
