The AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am is a 72-hole PGA TOUR golf championship dating back to the 1930’s when Bing Crosby gathered a ‘few friends’ to raise money for charity... and have a little fun.
Top TOUR professionals team with Hollywood celebrities, world renowned musicians and the captains of industry as they compete for a $6.1 million purse. Foursomes rotate to MPCC Shore Course, Spyglass Hill and Pebble Beach Golf Links Thursday through Saturday. The infamous ‘cut’ is made on Saturday night and the leading 60 professionals and 25 pro-am teams play Pebble Beach on Sunday for the championship.

Final round, Pebble Beach Golf Links
The harsh storm that was expected all week kindly took the daylight hours off, allowing the first three rounds to be completed. But then rain and high winds pounded the Monterey Peninsula, forcing the final round to be rescheduled for Monday. That gave Dustin Johnson one long day to wait around and two nights to sleep on his 54-hole lead, while tournament officials and grounds crews wished for one more playable day.
But Johnson, a 24-year-old from South Carolina, who had only one PGA Tour victory under his belt when he came to Pebble Beach, never did have his nerves tested under final-round pressure on the famous links. More rain pelted the area Sunday night and Monday morning, forcing cancellation of the fourth round before anyone got a chance to tee it up.
