Yeah it really sucked following around Bob May and Tiger Woods for six holes and watching them gut it out in a playoff, heck I had to stand on my toes for 20 seconds to see Tiger hit that 20 footer on 18 to win. Never again.
I've played Spyglass also, the layout of the course is probably a bit better than PB,Playing pebble beach this October myself, how well do you like that course. Did you also play spyglass? Playing that the day after pebble and I hear spyglass is actually a nicer course but could be a matter of opinion. Whistling straits is actually next on our list so interested in what you think there. Played sawgrass in 2015 which I highly recommend. Live that course and will definitely be back.
But I still liked Pebble better.
I could be biased by the fact I played a lot better at Pebble.
You can't go wrong though, just enjoy.
