I have had the sheer joy of playing Pebble Beach - once! It was an invite from a generous friend and I took it - leaving my family behind in San Diego to fly up for the night.

Of course, it lives up to every expectation. It starts out rather nicely, gets seriously tougher as you go and by the end of the round, when your score is not that important anymore, the beauty takes over to ease your suffering.

The one thing that I still can’t get over was/is - the tiny size of the greens. After seeing the course hundreds of times on television and EA Sports, it was just the one thing that stood out when I got the chance to play.

I hope everyone is so lucky.
