Anybody can walk on. The green fee is the green fee of an expensive private club, and the morning starting times go out months in advance, but the booking page does not ask whether the player is a member of anywhere. The course, on the Monterey peninsula where the 17-Mile Drive bends through the cypress and the Pacific takes the cliff in long slow bites, sits on the public side of a line most of the great courses in the world sit on the wrong side of. The player who walks the first tee at Pebble Beach with a borrowed driver and a half-set of irons is walking the same ground the 1972 US Open was won on, the 2000 US Open was destroyed on, and the 2010 US Open was held on. The course does not change between visits. The wind does. The handful of holes on the cliff edge do. The hole map does not.</p>
