The Story
A municipal course on the Pacific cliffs, tough enough to have broken the best player alive.

In 1957, the City of San Diego opened a public golf course on a bluff-top stretch of coastal land in La Jolla, named for the rare, wind-bent Torrey pines native to the site and found almost nowhere else on earth. William F. Bell laid out two courses, North and South, on land 300 feet above the Pacific — a muni built for the public from the start, not a private retreat that later opened its gates.

The South Course became a PGA Tour fixture in 1968, when the tour's San Diego stop began rotating between North and South (the tournament has worn several names since — San Diego Open, Buick Invitational, and today the Farmers Insurance Open). A young Tiger Woods grew up playing municipal golf just up the coast, and Torrey Pines became something close to a home course; he has won the Tour event there a record eight times.

In 2001, Rees Jones was hired to toughen the South Course for a championship it had never before been considered for: the U.S. Open. Jones lengthened the layout, deepened the bunkers, and pushed the greens to championship speed, and in 2008 the USGA brought its national championship to a public course only the second time in history. Tiger Woods played that week on a fractured tibia and a torn ACL, somehow forcing a Monday playoff with Rocco Mediate and winning it on the 19th hole — one of the most physically improbable performances in major championship history.

The Open returned in 2021, when Jon Rahm birdied two of his final three holes to win his first major on the same cliffs. Torrey Pines remains what it was built to be in 1957: a course anyone can play with a green fee and a tee time, on land dramatic enough to have hosted two U.S. Opens and tested the game's greatest players at their limit.
