The PGA TOUR returns to one of its most iconic venues, while this week also marks a highly anticipated return for a pair of top-ranked Texans.
Both Scottie Scheffler and Jordan Spieth are set to tee it up this week at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am after returning from injuries that required surgery. It is the 2025 PGA TOUR debut for both Scheffler and Spieth, while Rory McIlroy is also set to make his first TOUR start of the season.
The AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am will once again feature 80 of the TOUR’s best, earning their way into the field thanks to their finishes through 2024 on the FedExCup standings, or an impressive start to 2025 via the Aon Swing 5.
Here’s everything else you need to know as the PGA TOUR’s second Signature Event of the season is about to begin.
FIELD NOTES: Scottie Scheffler is back. Scheffler, who suffered a puncture wound making ravioli on Christmas Day and needed surgery, is making his 2025 PGA TOUR debut after a magical 2024 campaign that saw him capture Player of the Year honors. Scheffler was scheduled to play both The Sentry and The American Express. In his AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am debut a year ago, Scheffler finished T6. … Rory McIlroy is also set to make his PGA TOUR debut in 2025 after opening his season on the DP World Tour and finishing T4 at the Hero Dubai Desert Classic. McIlroy notched two victories on TOUR a year ago and sits No. 3 in the world. … Wyndham Clark returns as the defending champion, looking to become the first person to go back-to-back at Pebble Beach since 2009-10. Clark won last year’s event after a third-round 60, as the event was shortened to 54 holes. This is Clark’s third start of the season. He finished T15 at The Sentry. … Other past winners in the field include Justin Rose, Tom Hoge, Jordan Spieth (more on Spieth below) and Nick Taylor,who won the Sony Open in Hawaii in a playoff earlier in January. … Harris English returns to action following his first PGA TOUR win since 2021 after capturing the Farmers Insurance Open, while Hideki Matsuyama (The Sentry) and Sepp Straka (The American Express) are also in-season winners teeing it up.
