Pebble Beach Pro-Am: Leaderboard Update & Round 2 Action
The picturesque greens of Pebble Beach Golf Links are once again the stage for one of the PGA Tour's most cherished events, the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am. As the tournament heads into its crucial second round, golf enthusiasts are eagerly tracking the Pebble Beach Pro-Am leaderboard to see who is making a move towards championship glory.
Round 2 Underway on the Monterey Peninsula
Following a captivating opening round, the field has transitioned to the second day of competition, with play spread across Pebble Beach Golf Links and the challenging Spyglass Hill Golf Course. The unique Pro-Am format, which pairs PGA Tour professionals with amateur partners, saw its celebrity contingent, including NFL star Travis Kelce and Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, make their final appearances on the links on Friday. From Saturday onwards, the focus will solely be on the professional golfers vying for the prestigious title.
Early Standouts and First-Round Performances
The first round set a high bar, with several players showcasing exceptional form. Japan's Ryo Hisatsune continued his impressive streak, firing a stellar 10-under-par 62, concluding his round with three consecutive birdies. This performance immediately placed him at the top of the Pebble Beach Pro-Am leaderboard. Not far behind, Chris Gotterup, already a two-time winner this season, demonstrated why he's a force on tour, carding an 8-under-par performance. Tony Finau also found himself in contention, matching Gotterup's score.
Other notable players who entered Round 2 in strong positions include Sam Burns, who posted a 9-under, and a group of talented golfers like Patrick Rodgers, Keegan Bradley, Akshay Bhatia, and Jordan Spieth, all lurking near the summit of the leaderboard. Even established stars like Rory McIlroy, making his first start of the season, showed flashes of brilliance with a 4-under-par opening round. However, not all top players had a smooth start; Scottie Scheffler, the world's top-ranked golfer, faced early struggles for the third consecutive tournament, though his position on the leaderboard is less of a concern given that there is no cut this week.
