  • When You Think of Great Golf Destinations in the United States, San Diego Isn’T on the List, but It Should Be As the City Has It All
    or a couple of years I’ve wanted to visit ‘America’s Finest City’ (according to Wikipedia), not because of the genius of Will Ferrell and his character Ron Burgundy in the movie Anchorman. That helped, but the urge came more from a conversation I had with Geoff Ogilvy, who said, “For a combination of golf and lifestyle, something for all the family to do, there’s nowhere like San Diego.” Ogilvy should know, he made it his home, and it’s also the birthplace of Hall of Famer Phil Mickelson. So much about San Diego feels like Sydney. It’s got a great climate, beautiful harbour and beaches plus a world-famous zoo. Tick, tick and tick, and the gum trees were transplanted from the Australian bush. I was there the week after Mickelson won the Open Championship and he was back in town sharing the Claret Jug with family and friends. Despite visiting the Callaway Performance Centre plus two of the golf clubs he plays at, we kept just missing “the Champion Golfer of the Year” by a day or two, but that’s as bad as our luck got, the rest was brilliant. WHEN YOU THINK OF GREAT GOLF DESTINATIONS IN THE UNITED STATES, SAN DIEGO ISN’T ON THE LIST, BUT IT SHOULD BE AS THE CITY HAS IT ALL. THE WEATHER IS NEAR-PERFECT, ITS TOPOGRAPHY IS IDEAL AND THERE’S AN ABUNDANCE OF QUALITY COURSES.
