Linda Hartough painted the 3rd at Spyglass Hill, a par 3 in the white sand dunes, played from a raised tee with cypress trees and the Pacific in view.

Spyglass Hill Golf Course opened in 1966 on the Monterey Peninsula, a short distance from Pebble Beach Golf Links. Robert Trent Jones designed it, with help from his son, Robert Trent Jones Jr. Samuel F.B. Morse, who ran Del Monte Properties, named it after Robert Louis Stevenson's Treasure Island, and nearly every hole is named for a place or character in the novel, from Treasure Island at the 1st to Blind Pew at the 4th.

The course has two distinct parts. The opening holes play through white sand dunes and ice plant near the ocean, much like a links, before the course turns inland and climbs into the pines of the Del Monte Forest, where the holes are narrower and more heavily wooded. The contrast between the two halves is the course's defining trait, and it has a reputation as one of the harder courses on the peninsula.
