Why Pebble Beach is so famous

Some of the views at Pebble Beach are so unforgettable. Take this one for instance.

This is taken from the #7 tee box looking downhill at this very short par 3. But the backdrop to the hole is the Pacific Ocean.

Double click this picture to get a perspective of how far above the green you are at the tee box.

For the golfers, this is only about 90 yards to a green that is probably 100 feet below you on the tee.

For the record, I was the only player in our group to hit this green from the tee. However, I then proceeded to 3-putt for my bogey. Not a huge surprise, as I had four 3-putts during the round.
