No one has done more for humor in golf than Bill Murray. Since the release of Caddyshack in 1980, Murray has helped bring levity to the sometimes serious nature of the sport. George Lopez arrived on golf scene more recently, but he's also a fan favorite.

I bet I can guess your exact age based solely on how much golf you like to play per week.

Don't believe me? Try this and you'll be amazed:

How many rounds of golf would you like to play during an average five-day week? (choose from 1 through 9 rounds)

Multiply this number by 2.

Add 5.

Now multiply the result by 50.

If you have already had your birthday this year, add 1,759.

Pebble Beach golf courses keep coming up with new deals and specials (not available at the pebblebeach.com website) that we thought you'd want to know about.

The $495 green fee at Pebble Beach Golf Course, the two-night-minimum hotel stay (which can run $700 per night) required to make advance tee times is often too much to bear.

Monterey Peninsula California knows golf. Second to its natural beauty, Monterey is renowned for it's golfing adventures. This Golden State region embodied relaxation as a religion long before the rest of the country caught on. Plush accommodations, on-call masseuses, fine wines in the cellar and extraordinary golf courses became staples for the entire coastal region.

Well, where should i start....? Every time i set forth to play a round on the Peninsula I become inspired in one way or another. My most recent moving experience happened during a round at Poppy Hills. Set up at the top ridge of the Del Monte Forest lies this splendid course were the front-nine is open to the afternoon sun and the back-nine is set deep in the forest.
