Cypress Ridge gets Golf Digest 4.5 RatingTuesday, January 23, 2007For the second time in two years, Golf Digest has given Cypress Ridge Golf Course a rating of 4.5 stars. That's the opinion the magazine received when it asked 20,000 golfers to rate 4,000 golf courses in North America and the Carribean based on its condition, pace of play, service, value and overall experience.Cypress Ridge is a Peter Jacobsen signature course and was designed by the former PGA tour winner along with Jim Hardy. It also is an Audobon Signature Sanctuary. The only course to get a higher rating in California was Pebble Beach, which could cost golfers upwards of $350 per round. The green fee for Cypress Ridge is $55 per round for a weekday game. "We're making top caliber golf accessible for fans who love the game but don't want to pay exorbinant rates - to me that is an accomplishment," said head pro Rick Ventura. Cypress Ridge has played host to mini tour stops, USGA qualifiers and Cal Poly intercollegeiate tournamenets. An on-site hotel and new clubhouse slated to be built in the future will bring even more professional interest to the course. The 2006-07 edition of Golf Digest's 'Best Places to Play' is available in bookstores or at www.golfdigest.com.
