Spyglass Hill is possibly the hardest golf course on the Monterey Peninsula. The hilly land tumbles down towards the sea, leaving fairways lined with cypress and pines, laced with areas of brilliant white sand.

4.5
Spyglass is a great track, just not epic.
Holes 1-5 are what you come for. The woodland/pine feel to the rest of the course is lovely, but does not stand up to the other tracks on the peninsula.
The clubhouse and facilities are dated, as is the design and feel of the course. Very late seventies kind of vibe.
Very good condition agronomy. Need to have better sight lines through the forested holes. Feels crowded at times.
Definitely the hardest of the courses on the peninsula.

The latest ranking of the Top 100 Golf Courses in the World serves as the ultimate global golf bucket list. Most members of our World Top 100 Panel are seasoned golfers, each playing 20-30 of these courses annually while travelling extensively over decades to form their opinions on others. We recognise that opinions vary—even among our panel members. Rankings are subjective, and there are undoubtedly 50 or more courses in the UK and USA alone that could easily fit onto this list.
