  Blue is the new black.

  That's one of the reasons i have only played 1 round on the course. Our equipment is making it look silly to be honest. A close froend Nat11 had a 26 on her second attempt. Would have loved  to be teeing off facing a  real challenge like Chambers because the course does look amazing. It is what it is right? :)

  Thanks jayw.I guess I/we will have to wait until 2019 to get the full US Open version of Pebble.Here's hoping I live to see the day.

  We have it all. The tips correspond to the current US Open scorecard.

  WGT photographed the course as it was last year, and you don't honestly think that they would go back '19 for any changes?

  Pebble is a short course, and the top guns will soon post fabulous scores. What about a 40?

  Wonderful job WGT with pebble thus far, very impressed by Pebble. Can only imagine how good the back 9 is.

  Thanks alosso.The yardages do match up pretty close to the card you provided so I guess as Priestess said "it is what it is" and there is no going back for wgt.

  I think what threw me off was I had looked up that same card also and noticed below the card the course rating had 5 tees listed with black being the US Open conditions while we are only showing 4 tees and no Black tees.I was hoping/praying there was a tougher set of Black tees out there come the US Open.

  I'd like to thank WGT for unexpectedly gifting me a 270 yard 3 wood to test. I just wish they hadn't done it on the 8th hole at Pebble. Carrying 271 yards and up 42 feet against the wind is a neat trick; I wish my normal 3 could do it!

  Just absolutely stunning views. I find myself looking around more than trying to figure out my next shot.

  I know we were promised this course quite a LONG time ago, but very VERY well done WGT.

  You're right - they messed that up and "re-arranged" the tee colours for no apparent reason. So, blue is the new black, as so. said.

  No bug on 8 for me either. Could be operator error. JMHO.
