Pebble Beach Golf Course - The Links at Spanish Bay

Course History:

This Scottish style course is absolutely incredible and all golfers should try to play here at least once in their lives. The ocean breezes and true Scottish fairways make this a real challenge, particularly if you are not used to playing a coastal course.

What You Need to Know:

This course has environmentally friendly areas that make the play even more challenging. Please be advised of these areas and note that you may not enter them. Drops are allowed to avoid entering these locations.

The practice facilities here are top notch and it's a good idea to give them a try before heading out on the course. Please be advised that there is a dress code and collared shirts and trousers are a must. Please follow all PGA rules on this course and keep in mind that it is one of the most prestigious courses in the world.

Playing Hints:

The sandy terrain and the wind make this course a little tough to get used to at first. No one manages to master it the first time around, so you'll want to plan to play at least three rounds if you're serious about taking this course on. It is a lot of fun however and the scenery is stunning.

The first hole is a par five that gives you a great start. If you've got some skill you may even be able to birdie this hole. But watch out for the third hole which is a deceptively easy par three. Try a pitch and run shot to master this one. The seventh hole faces the water and you'll be dealing with numerous bunkers all the way to the green. Accuracy really counts on this hole.

The twelfth hole is very long and incredibly narrow. You're going to need to really hit this one off the tee and try to keep as close to the center of the fairway as possible. You really don't want to end up in the rough on this one. The fifteenth hole is a real killer and you'll need to hit a long tee shot to make it to the center island fairway, and then another long shot to get to the island green. The rough in between each island is not where you want to be on this course.
