The PGA Tour's AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am (total prize money of $20 million) was eventually reduced to 54 holes due to bad weather.
The PGA Tour Competition Committee announced on the 5th (Korean time) that, after discussion with the Monterey County Safety Department, where the tournament is held, it has decided not to hold the fourth round of the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am.
The competition was originally scheduled to be held on this day to determine the final winner, but was postponed by a day.
On this day, it rained heavily and strong winds blew near the stadium. The rain stopped in the afternoon, but strong winds were expected to continue all day, so it was decided that it would be difficult to continue the game due to safety issues, so it was decided to postpone the game for a day.
However, looking at the 6-day forecast, it was difficult to hold the game normally even if it was postponed by a day, and the game committee eventually decided to shorten the game to three rounds. Accordingly, the results up to round 3 became the final results.
Wyndham Clark (USA), who recorded a final total of 17 under par and 199 strokes, won the ‘lucky championship’. Clark was tied for 23rd place until the second round, but jumped to the sole lead with a whopping 12 under par in the third round.
Clark, who 'turned his life around' by winning his first PGA title and winning the US Open last year at the age of 30, achieved his third win on the tour with a lucky victory this time.
Second place is Ludwig Arbery (Sweden, 16 under par, 200 strokes), and third place is Mathieu Pabon (France, 15 under par, 201 strokes).
Among Korean players, Kim Si-woo (29, CJ) is the highest ranked, tied for 14th with 10 under par and 206 strokes.
Kim Joo-hyung (22, Nike Golf), An Byeong-hoon (33, CJ), and Kim Seong-hyun (26, Shinhan Financial Group) recorded a total of 7 under par and 209 strokes through the third round, tied for 31st place.
It has been 7 years and 9 months since the Zurich Classic in May 2016 that a PGA Tour tournament was reduced to 54 holes. At that time, Brian Steward (USA) won the championship after defeating Byung-Hoon An and Jamie Lovemark (USA) in a close overtime match. 스포츠토토
