This course is best known for providing some of the best views of the Silicon Valley. The front nine is hilly, so expect some uneven lies. However, the fairways are somewhat open compared to the narrower ones on the back nine. The terrain on the back nine is flat, but water hazards come into play on some holes. The greens are fast and slightly sloped. Water hazards come into play throughout the course. The signature hole is #16, a 199-yard, par 3, which calls for a tee shot downhill over a water hazard and into a prevailing wind. The green on this hole slopes from back to front, and right to left.
