  • That's a view that many should have an opportunity to see and a shot that the fearless should have a chance to take. Absolutely wonderful.

  • The greatest 17 hole course in the world...

  • ty for the book title. I keep coming back to this video wow  i know it will probably never happen but as long as Im alive I will always dream of standing on that tee. maybe some day

  • Now that I've read the book my only disappointment is to find that Cypress Point is private. What will it take to get to play that course? How about a trade for a round on my home course: Pinehurst No. 2?

  • Great video! Thanks for posting. I recently played Cypress Point for the first time. Incredible. The 16th is indeed the greatest hole in golf. Even managed a par!

  • what book?

  • @48brianm Just finished reading "The Match". The book chronicles the day in 1956 when 2 of the best amateurs at the peak of their games: Harvie Ward and Ken Venturi, where pitted against 2 of the best professionals of any era, yet past their prime, Bryon Nelson and Ben Hogan. Cypress Point is the 5th star in the book. Mark Frost describes every hole, stroke by stroke so that you feel like you witnessed it in person. Read the book- it is a real page turner.

  • @PinehurstGolfer

    Read it last year. Very good--worth getting past a little overwriting and overcleverness by the author at times, just for the value of the story itself. Impossible not to want to go there and play after reading it.

  • @PinehurstGolfer I've read it too, great read, infact I've read a few of Mark Frost's offerings at this stage. The Match, The Grand slam, but his best for me is The greatest Game ever played - The story of Francis Ouimet (in the 1913 US Open) and his battle against the Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson of the time, Harry Vardon and Ted Rey, in a simple phrase "bleedin deadly". That was the birth of Golf in America, when it became everymans dream.

  • Remarkable. When the pathway ends and the view of the hole opens up, I got chills. Wonderful video.

  • isnt this course private tho!!! if so how do u get a membership

  • i just played that course and Cypress Point is by far the most amazing course ive ever played nice vid

  • Just finished reading the book... the match was amazing, the book was the best I've ever read.
