TPC Harding Park - Harding Course

It's need a lot of work to make this a TPC course.

It's a public course with a big name.

Paid $86pp. The hot deal usually pops out 15 min after midnight 7-8 days before and they go real quick. They trimmed the thought down a bit so i had a less terrible shot. Bunkers are packed underneath w loose sand on top. It should be easier to hit out for some since it’s not overly fluffy. It’s challenging and you could still lose your ball easily in the rough. Glad I had 3 ppl helping to look. Cad path only rule was in effect which did not help but our group is super fast. We finished the round in 4 hour 10 mins. Could have been quicker if the group in the front moves faster. Will come back to play again when we visit!

Nice conditions except for the greens were aerated and were very bumpy and slow. No warning when tee time was made. We got stuck behind a 4 some for about 13 holes. The group was holding up a few groups behind. Marshall should have asked them to speed up or let groups pass.

This place speaks for itself. Rounds later in the day when you can get out there by yourself or pair with another single are some of the most peaceful rounds I’ve ever played. Hot Deal rates are always worth it here.

This was my first time on the course, got to check this off my bucket list, I’ve been wanting to play it since I watched the PGA on TV. Really great layout, great conditions overall. Friendly staff and great halfway house with all the snacks you could want. Try the breakfast burrito, it was huge and delicious.

For a TPC course it's not up to standards. Over priced for this TPC course.

The only thing that bugs me is that there is no reason to rent a cart because it’s cart path only and it is more walking doing that then just bringing push cart. It’s always that way so just know that when playing Harding Park. Beautiful though best public course in Northern California

Going to Harding Park to play the TPC is always a thrill. The fact that is has hosted some major tournaments now and has such a wonderful golf history makes it a special day. The course right now is in disrepair. The sand traps are hard pack, barely any sand in them and there is now grass growing in some of the fairway bunkers. The greens are a mess now and they have now ariated and sanded them. That's the first step to getting them back in shape. The rough is so thick that it looks like it hasn't been groomed or attended to in quite some time - easily 5-6" of gnarly stuff making it very tough to recover. US Open Level for sure! The fairways are ok and they are reshaping/reworking green side bunkers on 10 and 14. Look, the bones are all there to bring this track right back to were it was when Colin won there a few years ago. It just needs a BIG dose of TLC - PLEASE!! They did lower rates to 1/2 price @$75 weekdays on Golf Now, but right now, I think that's even a little too much.

Everything was great. The only criticism is that they should let you drive the cart on the fairway. If you are going to play here, rent the push cart instead.

I live close to Harding but don’t play the course much. The Bay Area is blessed with many golf courses to choose from. While Harding is nice, the course isn’t very challenging and the conditions of the greens was appalling as were some bunkers. The fairways were nearly manicured while the rough was penalizing.

For how much you have to pay, the condition is just okay.

Greens are super slow with a lot of ball marks. Patchy fairways here and there. No sand in bunkers. Classic overplayed Muni where they somehow hosted a major tournament. Don’t even compare this to Torrey Pines or any other TPC courses. There are 4 holes in the front 9 that look identical without much inspiration.

I play here regularly with the resident rate and would never play here for a dime more than $90 (or for a advance booking fee) For those of you who pay $130-200, you will be seriously disappointed. There are way better courses with better value around the area - half moon bay, presidio, wente - just to name a few.

Need drink holders in the pull cart. Clubhouse was in poor shape. Can easily see how tough the course is and the history behind it. But greens were like shag carpet. Didn’t putt true once.

I originally had high expectations coming to play this course on a last minute decision.I have previous experience in the golf industry in the Monterey Bay Area as pro shop staff.The staff at this course facility were awesome.The clubhouse facility was quoted dated unfortunately.The golf course was my major gripe.The greens were the slowest type I had ever played.The rough was torrential to say the least.Too much time spent looking for any players ball.Too much time spent putting on slow greens.The course layout is great..the format of the course turf conditions was not to my liking. which seemed to be suited to high volume play expectancy..For such a storied course my expectations were definitely not met and I am hopeful to a return of upstanding for this great course layout and it’s facilities.

Great course, slow greens, but amazing layout. Rough is tall and very punishing if you miss.
