Cypress Point golf course

Cypress point rules in the heart of California spreading its arms from pebble beach to the dry lands. It is counted among the best golf courses with second position in the world. Cypress Point golf course was founded in 1928, and it was designed by a well-known course designer- Alister MacKenzie. Cypress point has an 18 hole conceit with its three unique holes, 15th, 16th and 17th located parallel with the coast of the pacific ocean. First 14 holes are unexplored as they are too stunning. There are some patterns of holes which are extraordinarily complex as back-to-back par fives and back-to-back short par fours, often you have to hit a shot blindly and the ball goes over hedges and plait. As it is one of the best golf courses, it has witnessed some grand matches between strong players of golf. Formerly this course has been a hosting tee for AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am, 1991. The other moment was 1956 of “the Match” between two greatest players Ben Hogan and Byron Nelson and two foremost recreational players Ken Venturi & Harvie Ward. Cypress point is situated between the beautiful Pebble Beach and spyglass hills, on the site of Monterey Peninsula. Playing golf in this heavenly golf course is like a dream.
