PGA Tour AT&T Pebble Beach Pro Am final leaderboard http://www.pgatour.com/competition/2017/at-t-pebble-beach-pro-am/leaderboard.html
It's very, very early in this year of 2017, but of the so called big3, Jordan Spieth who is officially ranked at #6, is playing most like the #1.
Rory is out indefinitely with that stress fracture in his rib, Jason Day, still shaking off the rust from a 3 month break is showing signs of returning to form, he was tied for the 36 hole lead but blew his chances with a 75 on Saturday before rebounding with 67 to T5.
But it is the young Texan, who spent the week on the spectacular Monterey Peninsula amongst the rich and famous, and in a particularly strong field, who looked like the worlds best, completely relaxed and confident, strong and at times spectacular iron play and of course the trademark putter back in form particularly during a pair of 65's on Friday and Saturday when he put this event AT&T Pebble Beach Pro Am away. He led by 6 shots starting Sunday and putted pretty defensively, considering he was in position for birdie on nearly every hole, and finished up with -2 70 -19 total, four shots ahead of his Dallas buddy Kelly Kraft (67) then Pebble Beach specialist Dustin Johnson (68)
He has been under par in everyone of his four top 10s this year and will be the favourite going into Riviera this week.
It was a good weekend for 4 of our Canadians. Nick Taylor and Mackenzie Hughes were T10, both shot a final round 71 to finish the tournament at -8. Brad Fritsch (71) good for 33rd at -5 while Adam Hadwin (73) was 39th, a shot back at -4.
David Hearn and Mike Weir missed the cut.
As for the celebrity pairings, the winners were Ken Duke and Carson Daly.
