After a thrilling playoff finale at the Farmers Insurance Open, the PGA Tour carries on its 'California Swing' with the iconic AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am, an event which comprises the world's best golfers, actors and entertainers.
Staged over three of the Monterey Peninsula’s premier golf courses: Pebble Beach Golf Links, Spyglass Hill Golf Course, and Monterey Peninsula Country Club Shore Course. The tournament gives spectators and TV audiences some of the best views and holes in golf.
Jack Nicklaus even once stated that "if he only had one more round of golf to play, he would choose to play it at Pebble Beach". That's how iconic the event and venue is to the 18-time Major champion.
This year, Daniel Berger returns to defend his title, with the likes of Patrick Cantlay, an in-form Jason Day, Matthew Fitzpatrick and Jordan Spieth looking to claim the trophy. Along with the professionals, there are also appearances from some huge celebrities, with Andy Garcia, Macklemore, Bill Murray and Canelo Álvarez just some of the big names participating in the event.

WHO WON THE 2021 AT&T PEBBLE BEACH PRO-AM?
Last year, Daniel Berger produced a stunning eagle at the famous 18th hole to secure a fourth PGA Tour title. The 30-foot putt proved crucial, as he claimed a two-shot victory over Maverick McNealy, with overnight leader, Jordan Spieth, unable to hang onto his position at the top of the table.
WHO WILL BE PLAYING IN THE 2022 AT&T PEBBLE BEACH PRO-AM?
Berger returns for 2022, as does Spieth and McNealy. As well as the trio, Matthew Fitzpatrick, Patrick Cantlay, Jason Day and Justin Rose also feature. This year, the event will be missing a number of big names. This is due to players choosing to play the Saudi International, which also gets underway on Thursday.
