HILLS POPPY


Inside the pearly gates of 17-Mile Drive, the best zip code in golf just got better. The new Poppy Hills has ascended to the revered stature of its sacred neighbors in golf heaven—and you still don’t have to sell your soul to aff ord a tee time. Enjoy the quieter side of Pebble Beach, the cozy corner of the dramatic Del Monte Forest that Poppy Hills inhabits. A 13-month, $13 million renovation has transformed the home of the NCGA into a fi rm, fast and fun foray that fades into the forest. The Champions Tour was so impressed with the renovation that it zeroed in on Poppy Hills to co-host this year’s First Tee Open—even though some holes still lived in dirt form at the time. They could see what you soon will—a trendy and sleek design that amplifi es its unique forest setting by sinking back into it, all while eliminating rough and upgrading to bentgrass greens. To commemorate this renaissance at Poppy Hills, we’ve dedicated the following special section to celebrating the newest course in Pebble Beach. Turn the page. It’s time for the newest chapter of Poppy Hills.
