Mission
Despite the acclaim and success Pebble Beach has earned, our goals remain simple: To provide our guests with unique experiences that they will cherish, remember, share with others, and want very much to repeat.
The Beautiful — and Challenging — Result
Spyglass Hill has been a tournament course since birth. It was built to host a dozen NCGA amateur championships annually, and one year after it opened, Spyglass Hill joined the Bing Crosby National Pro-Am rotation. Bing Crosby was so confident in the championship-caliber of Spyglass Hill that he bet none other than Jack Nicklaus that he wouldn’t break par in his first round there. (Nicklaus shot a 2-under 70, and has a framed $5 bill signed from Crosby to commemorate the occasion.) But Spyglass Hill has always been considered a true championship test of golf, and it will co-host the U.S. Amateur for a second time in 2018. When Spyglass Hill previously hosted the 1999 U.S. Amateur, no player in the field was able to break 70, and the scoring average was just a shade under 80.
