The Pro-Am event pairs pros with amateur partners for the first two days of play, offering a unique dynamic to the tournament. While the event hasn’t always attracted the strongest field, its recognition as a Signature Event on the 2025 PGA Tour calendar has significantly raised the stakes. With 80 of the world’s best golfers lined up for the no-cut event, the tournament boasts a generous $20 million purse. Wyndham Clark was crowned champion in 2024 after strong winds canceled the final day’s play.

His 12-under-par course record (60) in round three secured a one-shot victory over Ludvig Åberg, earning his third PGA Tour title. Both Clark and Åberg, now teammates at Bay GC, return this year, joining a stacked field that includes Rory McIlroy, Tommy Fleetwood, Hideki Matsuyama, Adam Scott, and Justin Thomas. But some big names have yet to make their appearance, and the question remains: which top players are still to join the action?

5. Min Woo Lee

Min Woo Lee is among the young rising stars of the golf world. He turned professional in 2019, and in just five years, he has already managed to bag four international wins. He has already played forty-nine events on the PGA Tour but is yet to clinch a trophy. The Australian professional came close to winning twice, finishing in the runner-up position.

Nonetheless, he had already managed to win a whopping $5,782,162 and ranked 53 on the OWGR list. But he is yet to begin his 2025 season, and the upcoming weekend will be his opening. Last year, the Australian professional skipped the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am, and this year, he will begin the season with it.

4. Tommy Fleetwood

Tommy Fleetwood is among the very few professionals who are exceptional at their game, but not so great when it comes to luck. The Englishman is so good that he ranks eleventh on the OWGR list, but even though it has been a decade and a half since he turned pro, he has yet to grab a win on the Tour. However, he has eight international wins under his belt, making him stand among the greatest players.

He will be a part of AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am, and this will be his first 2025 event on the PGA Tour. Who knows, this year might turn out to be his year of luck.

3. Jordan Spieth

Jordan Spieth started playing on the PGA Tour in early 2013, after turning pro in 2012. Since then, he has had a rather illustrious career. In this span, he has already managed to grab thirteen wins, which includes three Majors under his name, the 2015 Masters Tournament, the 2015 U.S. Open, and the 2017 British Open. He has appeared in 281 events so far and has bagged a whopping $62,741,970 so far.

However, he has not been very lucky in the last two years when it comes to the signature event. He finished at T63 in 2023, and a T39 last year. However, in 2022, he came very close to winning the title but lost to Tom Hoge by just two strokes.

2. Rory McIlroy

This will mark Rory McIlroy’s third appearance at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am. He missed the cut in 2018 and tied for 66th in 2024. As is customary,

McIlroy will start his competitive season on the DP World Tour, and 2025 is no different. The Northern Irishman will kick off his year with a title defense at the Hero Dubai Desert Classic before making his way to Pebble Beach.

McIlroy wrapped up the 2024 season with an impressive four victories and four runner-up finishes. His wins included two on the DP World Tour—the Hero Dubai Desert Classic and the DP World Tour Championship—and two on the PGA Tour, at the Zurich Classic of New Orleans and the Wells Fargo Championship.

1. Scottie Scheffler

Scottie Scheffler had an exceptional season last year. He appeared in nineteen events and won seven of them. He even finished at the runner-up position in the Texas Children’s Houston Open and the Charles Schwab Challenge. Adding to his coveted wins, the 28 YO also won the gold medal at the Paris Olympics. However, his last appearance was back in December at the Hero World Challenge.

During Christmas, the World No. 1 met with an accident during a Christmas dinner, which made him undergo surgery on his wrist. That was why he missed the Sentry, The Sony Open, and the American Express. The AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am will be his first, and who knows, he might come back with a bang.
