Tournament Notes:

AT&T brand ambassador and 2017 champion Jordan Spieth returns for his ninth start at this jewel event. Spieth is coming off a T-4 at last week’s Waste Management Phoenix Open.

Nick Taylor will attempt to become first player to successfully defend his title at the event since Dustin Johnson in 2010. DJ withdrew from this event earlier this week.

Five-time AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am champion Phil Mickelson is trying to surpass Mark O’Meara for most wins in tournament history.

Five of the top 30 in the FedExCup standings are in the field this week, led by tournament odds-on favorite Patrick Cantlay (3), Stewart Cink (10) and Si Woo Kim (13). Cantlay, in addition to being the highest-ranked player in the field in the FedExCup standings has earned an Official World Golf Ranking (No. 11) and he’ll make his fifth start at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am (T-9/2013, T-48/2017, T-35/2018, and T-11/2020).

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the tournament will be held without the traditional pro-am format this year.

Yesterday’s TL Wedge Edge: Daniel Berger and Jordan Spieth both deserve a look for your PGA Fantasy game starting foursome. Peter Malnati will be on my team as will Sam Burns.

For PGA Tour One and Done? I’m on Peter Malnati this week at Pebble Beach. Malnati was a T-11 last year at Pebble but is a 66-1 shot this week. If you don’t like Malnati, try Will Zalatoris for a Top 5 finish.

On This Day in Golf:

February 11, 1973 - A 43-year old Arnold Palmer won his 62nd and final PGA Tour title at the Bob Hope Desert Classic, beating out runners-up Jack Nicklaus and Johnny Miller by two strokes. Palmer calls the victory “his sweetest ever” and told the assembled media, “I hope it’s not as long before my next win” which unfortunately never happened.
