Course plays very differently depending on time of day. Wind can make the course difficult to score well. Though mornings are less windy, and thus a lessor challenge, the greens are in far better shape. If rough is watered, chipping can be very penalizing. Fairway and greens are a near requirement to play well. Use to shoot 6-9 over par on blues equal to 1-3 over at Pebble Beach - just because of difficulty on missed greens and bumpy rolls. I actually use Sunnyvale to prep for Pebble.
