Feb 1- 4 | Pebble Beach | Del Monte Forrest , CA
Golfers have yet another beautiful golf course to play this weekend, after playing Torrey Pines during the Farmers Insurance Open this past weekend. Pebble Beach is hosting the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am, and many of golfs biggest names will look to finish atop of the leaderboards, looking to gain momentum before playing in Waste Management and Genesis Open. Pebble Beach continues to rank as one of the best public course in the world, and I’m sure many golfers will be trying to take in the stunning views that the course provides. The weather forecast is a bit scary but it stayed dry during most of the day on Thursday, with gusts of wind that may reach over 30 mph on Sunday. Patrick Cantlay, Justin Thomas, Scottie Scheffler, and Ricky Fowler all are in good shape and should have a shot to win the event. Meanwhile, the stars are out as Tom Brady, Josh Allen, Steve Yong, Pau Gasol, Larry Fitzgerald, and more take advantage of the amateur section and add to the already awesome atmosphere in one of the most beautiful parts of the world.
A beautiful ending to day one. 🌈

Never thought I’d be verifying food poisoning reports but I can confirm a handful of players are sick here at Mayakoba, including one who is making his LIV Golf debut this week.
No word on whether the first round will be delayed or postponed. 2.5 hours until the shotgun start.

Yesterday during training exercises, @BernhardLanger6 tore his Achilles tendon.
He will have surgery today to repair the injury and will miss time.

Tyrrell Hatton’s move to LIV means he’s out of TGL, Tiger and Rory’s simulator league, per sources. Rahm pulled out of TGL before going to LIV. A player must be a PGA Tour member in good standing to play in TGL. Another wrinkle in ongoing negotiations between PGA Tour and PIF.
