About the tournament
The Pacific Grove Championship returns to the iconic municipal links known as "The Poor Man's Pebble Beach," where a parkland front nine gives way to an exposed ocean-side finish along the Pacific. With Championship, Senior, and Net divisions plus separate prizes for women and super seniors (65+), the 36-hole event draws a competitive Northern California field to one of the region's most scenic and accessible layouts.

Course expectations
Chandler Egan's inland front nine offers birdie chances through the trees, while Jack Neville's ocean-side back nine along 17-Mile Drive demands committed ball flights and trajectory control when the coastal wind picks up.
Weather risk
February on the Monterey Peninsula can bring unpredictable coastal winds, especially on the exposed back nine where conditions often shift mid-round.
