Between 1969 and 2006, boldly-bunkered La Costa was the home of the PGA Tour's Tournament of Champions/Mercedes, and then the WGC-Accenture Match-Play. Some of the greats who won here include Jack Nicklaus, Tiger Woods, Watson, Phil Mickelson and Geoff Ogilvy (left). To play the holes used in competition, sign up for holes 1-3 and 13-18 of the North course and the back nine of the South.
