California is the deepest state in American golf, and this trail captures its best 20. Five courses rank among the national elite, anchored by Cypress Point and Pebble Beach on the Monterey Peninsula. The trail spans the full range of the Golden State — from Tillinghast and MacKenzie Golden Age classics in the Bay Area to George Thomas masterpieces in Los Angeles to Gil Hanse's desert marvel at Ladera. No state puts more courses in the national conversation.
