TKG Ep 81 2023 AT&T Pebble Beach National AM PRO Preview

Send Me A Text Message I would love to know where you are listening to me from!!

Well it's Groundhog Day, again, which means that we need to chat about a certain tournament where big time golfers don't even bother to show up.  The Pebble Beach weekend on the PGA Tour is upon us and I wanted to share my opinions of what I think of this weeks tournament.  I think that I failed to share that the price for a spectator grounds pass at this tournament starts at $95.00, which is highway robbery on US101.  

Nobody from last weeks Farmers Insurance Open's first page of the leaderboard showed up to this tournament.  Not even Cameron Champ.  It is very sad to see such a big time tournament being pushed to the side for CBS to run endless ads for their programming and to generate ad revenue.  The field for this tournament is worse than the 2022 Fortinet Championship that I attended back in September, and I even paid for a concert that I didn't stay to watch.  I literally have no idea who is playing in this tournament at all this week. 

Last weeks purse in San Diego was 8.7 million dollars, 
This weeks purse in Monterey is 9.0 million dollars.
Next weeks purse at Phoenix and at the Genesis in Los Angeles are both 20 million dollar purses.
