Never been a golfer, but knew this is where Phil Michelson is from, so made sure we went to the pro shop to buy hubby a shirt, friendly staff, perfection in the grounds keeping ... More

People line up in their cars before day break to play this course. Cliffs. The ocean. Paragliders. Absolutely breath taking. More

Played the South course as part of a scramble format tournament, which made it more fun than frustrating. Of course it's challenging, it's a US Open course, but it doesn't seem unfair and doesn't beat you up with difficulty. And the scenery can't be beat. More

municipal course so locals pay next to nothing to play. My greens fee was $215 compared to the $45 my t-shirt, jean shorts wearing playing partner had to pay. He was a local that walked up right before we tee'd off and joined us adn talked the whole time about how we got ripped off having to pay so much... More

Played the course on April 27th and all I can say is wow. I have played many courses through out both the US and elseware and must say this had to be one of the nicest I have ever played. The fairways and greens were in perfect shape. If you are ever in the area and love the game as... More

I played two rounds at Torrey Pines South and it didn't disappoint. The course was in great shape and it played every bit as tough as I imagined it would. Pretty cool to play on the same course where Tiger won the '08 Open... More

We played the south course (the one they use for the tournaments in case I have it wrong) - I would describe it as a nice course with limited nice views. It's easy to lose your ball if you hit off the fairway due to the grass! Definitely not worth the $250 (walk with pull cart rental) per player. Service... More

North Course is beautiful, difficult and fun. South Course is beautiful, impossible, difficult and sometimes not so fun. Hit em relatively straight and you are good, hit em at all into the rough and good luck! North is a favorite, South is a "hate it". You decide More
