It has been the site of golf’s most prestigious tourna- ments, including the annual AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am, and five U.S. Open Championships. Pebble Beach will host another U.S. Amateur in 2018 and its sixth U.S. Open in 2019. Truly the most coveted course in the world to play! Spyglass Hill® Spyglass Hill is without question one of the top public golf courses in the U.S. Ranked #48 in the U.S, it is located on the Pebble Beach peninsula. The PGA TOUR®, consistently lists Spyglass Hill’s holes 6, 8 and 16 among the toughest on the TOUR, and during the 1999 US Amateur, the stroke average of the field during medal play was in excess of 79.

Trained by David Simock, the five year-old was third in the Queen Anne Stakes at Royal Ascot this year. It was far easier for him this time and he ran out an easy winner, registering his first Black Type success. Cheveley Park Stud’s Zonderland came second ahead of Qatar Racing’s Arod. “That’s a massively relief, honestly,” said Simcock. “We’ve always thought the world of him and he was brilliantly nurtured by Olly Stevens. We’ve just picked up the pieces. We were so pleased with his first start in the Queen Anne and watching his last two races, you wouldn’t believe it and you feel sorry for the horse as he’s very, very good.
