The changes to the 2024 event are all positive, in my opinion, and one of the world&#8217;s most iconic golf venues will be on display, with the Tour&#8217;s top players competing for the elevated purse. The field is maxed at 80 participants, and the 54-hole cut has been removed. Thirty-six holes will be played between Pebble Beach and Spyglass Hill on Thursday and Friday, removing the Monterey Peninsula course altogether. The final two rounds will be played without the amateurs and solely at Pebble Beach Golf Links.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<div class=\"ast-oembed-container\" style=\"height: 100%;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Betting the ATT Pro-Am: Who&#039;s Cashing In This Weekend? \u26f3\ufe0f\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/jVhNu1my2JE?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p>For more course details, check out&nbsp;<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/twitter.com\/PGASplits101\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Ron&#8217;s<\/a>&nbsp;<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/betspertsgolf.com\/golf-betting\/att-pebble-beach-pro-am-at-pebble-beach-golf-links-2024-preview\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">course preview<\/a>. It&#8217;s the best in the business, bar none. Here&#8217;s an important tidbit about the unique setup this week:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Due to the numerous angles faced off the tee, players are forced to use &#8220;less-than-driver&#8221; on many holes. Because of this, along with its lack of length, Pebble Beach has the shortest average driving distance on Tour, averaging only 272 yards, well below the Tour average. Longer hitters have a minimal advantage here.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Because fairways are so wide and the rough is cut short, accuracy off the tee means little as well. Add in the fact that players are clubbing down, and the result is driving accuracy above 72%. Fairway bunkers litter the course along with the impending ocean beyond the cliffs, but these dangerous areas are mostly avoided thanks to all of the forced layups.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>With Pebble Beach being a clear &#8220;second shot&#8221; course, the only relevant stat (in my opinion) to analyze OTT is Good Drive %, which measures how often a player lands their second shot on the green, no matter where their tee shot landed.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Overall, Pebble Beach has the smallest greens on Tour at an average of only 3,500 square feet compared to the average of 6,200. With a GIR rate below the Tour average at 63%, golfers who can simply get themselves on the green and as close to the pin as possible should create the most birdie opportunities on the tricky Poa surfaces. On average, over 46% of approach shots are under 150 yards. Expect wedges galore this week. Jordan Spieth summed it up best by calling it &#8220;a dart-throwing contest to see who can make the most putts.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">We have partnered with&nbsp;<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.vividpicks.com\/promo\/betspertsgolf\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Vivid Picks<\/a>&nbsp;to bring you an easy way to claim a FREE, no-strings-attached 2024 season at Betsperts Golf, plus a 100% deposit match up to $250!
