US Open Golf Tournament 2019 ~ Pebble Beach CA

US Open Golf Tournament, Pebble Beach, CA  June 13 – 16 2019

AT&T Pro Am Golf Tournament ~ Pebble Beach Golf Links, Pebble Beach

The Monterey Peninsula is a “Golf Mecca”.  We have golf course after golf course – with a perfect golf course to suit every player’s need.  And we attract PGA tours – after all who wouldn’t want to come to Pebble Beach which looks glorious to the TV viewer from every camera angle.   Every February we enjoy the AT&T Pro Am Golf Tournament, however, this year is a double whammy ~  the US Open Golf Tournament has come to Pebble Beach for the third time in 19 years.

This year something special is causing excitement and anticipation and there is only one word for it – Tiger.  Yes he’s back and after winning the Masters this year, his fans are hoping he can win here again this weekend.  Tiger has struggled with personal issues and serious injuries over the years and some critics thought he was done. But ever since his Augusta win, #Tigersback is a popular refrain.

As realtors we started planning for the US Open  months ago by creating innovative advertising for the print and digital media that would beguile and bewitch prospective buyers and invite them to purchase property while visiting the area.  During the tournament while the golf crowd heads for the courses, we’ll be manning our posts at the “Floor duty” desk or hosting numerous Open Houses at our listings hoping some of our visitors will stray from the event.  We hope to lure some of our golf enthusiasts to find the coveted prize – a home on the Monterey Peninsula.

Pictured here is 4103 Crest Road,  Pebble Beach, $1,375,000 5BR/3BA 3347 SF, Listing agent Susan Clark, Carmel Realty Company.  Call Susan for more information 831-320-6801.

We know that tournament goers will spend most of their time watching the play or playing golf themselves – and then, of course, time spent at the infamous 19th Hole.  In fact, keeping this in mind,  many companies are having parties and events including my real estate office, Carmel Realty Company, to entertain clients who have already purchased homes or who are considering it.  We hope that everyone will have such a good time here and at least pick up the newspapers and magazines touting our gorgeous homes and return at a  later time.

There is nothing more beautiful than Pebble Beach on a clear sunny day and that’s what we are blessed with this week except for a little morning fog.  If nothing else our visitors will take home delightful memories of blue skies, sunlit courses and crashing waves, after bearing witness to some great golf.  Will Tiger win?  That is yet to be determined. Play on!

“Make My Day” ~ AT&T Golf Tournament 2019 ~ Pebble Beach

AT&T Golf Tournament February 7-10 2019

Pebble Beach, CA

Welcome to the AT&T Golf Tournament 2019!

The AT&T Golf Tournament has always been dear to my heart.  It’s one of the events that made me fall in love with the Monterey Peninsula and inspired me to move here.

As  San Franciscans my husband and I were in awe of the Monterey Peninsula and we loved coming down to the tournament – usually meeting up with some of his golf buddies.  After walking the course and watching their favorite golfers in the morning my husband and his cohorts

Taken more recently – still walking the course!

would head out inspired and play Bayonet or one of their other favorite golf courses.  I would continue to be the consummate spectator

trying to catch a glimpse of Don Johnson, Kevin Costner, Jack Lemon, or Clint Eastwood (back when he still played in the tournament.)  OK, I didn’t just have golf on my mind!

Kevin Costner playing in the AT&T Golf Tournament

Well, let’s fast forward to 2019.  Speaking of Clint, there is something new at this year’s tournament, “Clint’s Saloon“! (See page 16)

Clint Eastwood in the Centennial Parade.

Situated on the 3rd Fairway a viewing venue has been created that offers a “Spaghetti Western” feel.  Swinging saloon doors, peanut shells on the floor, TV screens showing “A Fistful of Dollars” and “The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly” . . .  and everyone goes home with a Bobblehead of Clint.  

Clint about to join the Centennial parade in Carmel. He walked right by me and said, “Excuse me”, I was kind of in his way to get onto the stage coach!

The  Carmel Pine Cone has reported that sales for the upgraded ticket to hang in Clint’s Saloon are selling like “cheap whiskey on a cattle drive”.  Giddy up, Rawhide! Tickets are $250-$350 and hey, it’s for charity.

I know I haven’t talked at all about the actual golfers that are going to play or that a little known golfer, Ted Potter, our 2018 winner will be defending his title (Beware of flip flops!).  Check out the Pine Cone for great coverage on that.  I’m looking forward to seeing my new favorite pro golfers like Phil and Justin and Jordan.  The celebrities aren’t quite what they used to be (personal opinion) but time changes.

2018 Champion, Ted  Potter

As a blogger, I’ve always been advised to keep it short so I’ll be back again with insights as to how the realtor community views the tournament – since that’s ME!

Stay tuned! And call me if you too (like me) would like to own “a piece of dirt” on the Monterey Peninsula!
