Mathew;

Yes, CPC is indeed the rarified Cypress Point Club.

And SFGC is San Francisco Golf Club, a Tillinghast design located in the southwest corner of the city of San Francisco.
It is near the Olympic Club, Harding Park GC, and Lake Merced CC.....about two miles from the ocean.

SFGC has a terrific routing and is known for some really outstanding bunkering.

I rather assumed it would be:
'Shortaberger'. No?

Why is abbreviation such a long word?

I keep wondering when I see TOC if they are talking about St. Andrews or Kiawah.

People should just call it SA and save the confusion.

Eric,

Cheers.

I am not used to people needing to use such a redundant acronym - clearly, if you write something, it IS you opinion.

It's almost as bad as writing "I think..."

Of course you FWD.  :)
