U.S. Open Golf
The U.S. Open has come a long way from those first nine holes played October 4, 1895, on a course in Rhode Island. It’s come a long way in terms of distance, too, as the 2008 Championship will be held at Torrey Pines in San Diego.
From June 13-16, 2008, the golf world will descend on Torrey Pines’ south course. This golfer’s paradise, ranked as one of the most challenging municipal courses in the country, is bordered by mountains to the north and the Pacific Ocean to the west. In the course of a round, duffers never know what they’ll meet – sunshine, rain, fog, bone-rattling winds. Sometimes it’s a succession of all four.
Enjoy three night accommodations at the 5-star Hyatt Regency LaJolla located minutes from the course and a short drive from San Diego. San Diego’s climate is a legend all its own. Regarded as one of the best-kept secrets in the country, the city has natural parks scattered throughout, majestic mountains to the east, and a downtown that sits on San Diego Bay. No wonder its nickname is “America’s Finest City.”
This Experience includes $250 Visa gift cards for you and your companion, selected tickets to Saturday and Sunday rounds of the U.S. Open, along with roundtrip airfare from your city to San Diego.
