My Dad played Spyglass (the course next to Pebble & they have the same type of greens). Said Spyglass easily has the worst greens he's ever played on for a "big time" course.

That course is so heavily played I don't see how they could have championship caliber greens. Add in winds off the ocean and it all dries out quickly.
