THE LEGEND AND THE LORE

Spanning over half a century, the Pebble Beach National Pro-Am hasundergone changes in latitude and changes in attitude. But the core ofthe tournament remains not only the exceptional golf by the world's bestplayers, but also the lore surrounding each yearly winter extravaganza.

It is the pull of this lore that helps to account for the tournament'scontinued popularity. Part sporting event and part Northern Californiasocial event, the National Pro-Am has a devoted following. The appeal issuch that eight tournament volunteers each has contributed more than 40years of service.

The concoction of roughly four parts professional golfers to one partshow business and sports celebrities has gone down as smoothly as awell-chilled libation in the Tap Room. Entertainer Phil Harris, a pal ofBing Crosby's, is credited with setting a certain tone by accompanying hisgolf with a glass of his favorite whiskey. One year Harris announced thathe was the pro from “Jack Daniels Country Club.”

The fun actually began at the very first tournament, in 1937 at RanchoSanta Fe, near Del Mar. It rained so hard for three days, some tournamentcontestants wound up shooting ducks on a pond near the 18th green.And when the ducks flew away, the players shot at Larry Crosby's hat.Sam Snead won that first tournament, but when he saw a $500 winner'scheck coming his way said, “If you don't mind, Mr. Crosby, I'd ratherhave cash.”

In 1948, the tournament's second year on the Monterey Peninsula,Lloyd Mangrum won and put in solid nightly sessions at two long-gonebistros, the Blue Ox and Biff's El Estero. In 1951 Harris sank a 90-foot puttat Pebble Beach's 17th green to win the Pro-Am with partner DutchHarrison. “How about that, Bing. Ain’t this a helluva blow to cleanliving?” Harris said.

Ed “Porky” Oliver‘s name became part of the lore in 1953 when hetook a 16 on the famous, over-the-water 16th at Cypress Point. A 50 mile-an-hour gale–just another chapter in the book on “Crosby Weather”–wasblowing at the time.

In 1952 golfing dentist Cary Middlecoff, complained to Scottish-bornPebble Beach golf pro Peter Hay that windy conditions precluded the useof tees. Hay replied: “Show me in the rule book where it says you haveto tee up the ball. Now get back out there and play.”

In 1969, ABC‘s Jim McKay told a nationwide television audience:“And now here‘s Jack Lemmon, about to hit that all-important eighthshot.”

When the rains hit in 1960, Pro-Am contestant Johnny (Tarzan)Weissmuller, once the world‘s greatest swimmer, declared: “I‘ve neverbeen so wet in my life.” And in 1962 golf pro Jimmy Demaret got off oneof the tournament‘s most famous lines. Peering out from his room at TheLodge at a blanket of snow on the ground, he said, “I knew I got loadedlast night, but how did I wind up at Squaw Valley?”

On through the ’70s and ’80s the tournament advanced forward.Plus-fours and pleats were replaced by comfy cottons during the ‘90s.

As we entered the new millennium, so did golf apparel, introducing“techy textiles”. Logowear is everywhere and big business with topgolf brands exuding the classic to the contemporary. For a time thegame’s changing nature included a swing to colored golf balls. Appro-priately enough, Jerry Pate made a hole-in-one with one–his wasorange–at the revered 16th hole at Cypress Point during the 1982National Pro-Am. Today, everyone is back to white balls.

It was in 1915 that Samuel F. B. Morse, distant relative of theinventor of the telegraph, first envisioned a Pebble Beach Golf Links.Since its opening on February 22, 1919, Pebble Beach Golf Links hasbeen recognized for its superb layout and incredible beauty. Now 85years later, it is a course lauded worldwide by champions andamateurs alike.

The course was borne of the vision of one man and built from theexpertise of another. S.F.B. Morse saw this magnificent piece of land asa rich preserve worthy of appreciation and recreation. Hecommissioned Jack Neville, a five-time California state amateur golfchampion, to create a course unsurpassed in beauty, yet challenging toeven the best golfer in the game.

With the assistance of Douglas Grant on the bunkers, Neville createda lush series of holes linked by their incredible relationship to thedramatic land, sea and air that comprise the Monterey Peninsula. Withits cliffside fairways, sea sloping greens and nine holes bordering thePacific Ocean, Pebble Beach has captured the hearts of almost everyonewho has crossed its path.

Open to the public to this day, Pebble Beach Golf Links and TheLodge at Pebble Beach herald the future with the promise of another 85years of unforgettable golf, breathtaking beauty and unsurpassedservice.

SUMMARIES AND RESULTS

The BeginningRancho Santa Fe–Santa Fe, California

The AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am golf tournament is theoutgrowth of an idea Bing Crosby had in the mid-1930s after joiningLakeside Golf Club in Los Angeles.

Crosby came up with the idea of staging a pro-am competition togive Lakeside members and some other low handicap amateur golfersa chance to play with 50 or 60 professionals who were on the West Coastduring the winter months.

Since he had a home in the area, and was involved with Del Mar racetrack, it was logical that the tournament be held in the San Diego area,and Crosby selected Rancho Santa Fe Golf Club as the site for the event.

The first tournament in 1937 was limited to 18 holes when a delugewashed out the first round, starting a precedent for future years whenweather was a big factor. Sam Snead won the initial tournament with a68 with George Von Elm runnerup at 72. Snead and George Lewis wonthe pro-am section with a 68. In 1938 Snead won again, shooting 72-67--139 and collecting $500. Art Bell and amateur Phil Finlay won the pro-amwith a 134.

E. J. (Dutch) Harrison won in 1939, in Snead's absence, shooting 69-69–138, topping Byron Nelson, 68-71–139, and Horton Smith, 71-68–139by one stroke. Johnny Revolta and Maurie Luxford, who was atournament official for many years, won the pro-am division with 130.Babe Didrikson Zaharias was an entry in the event with husbandGeorge Zaharias, a former pro wrestler, but never was a factor in thecompetition.

Ed (Porky) Oliver, who later gained recognition by taking 16strokes on the 16th hole at Cypress Point, won in 1940 with roundsof 68-67–135, topping Vic Ghezzi, 69-69–138. Pro-am winners wereJohn Geertsen Sr. and Russ Osgood with 129.

After starting with some 60 players, the 1941 field grew to more than300, necessitating two days for the first round. Sam Snead won his thirdtitle with 67-69–136, edging Craig Wood, 69-68–137. Leonard Dodsonand Ray Watson were the pro-am winners with 124.

The final tournament at Rancho Santa Fe was held in 1942 with LloydMangrum and Leland Gibson listed as co-winners of the event.Mangrum had 70-66–136 while Gibson shot 67-69–136. The truth was,however, that they finished behind amateur John Dawson, who shot 66-67–133. Dawson, who was a scratch player at Lakeside, refused themoney. Harry Cooper and Dawson claimed pro-am honors. Cooperhelped Dawson six strokes for a 127 total.

21

When Bing Crosby moved his tournament to the Monterey Peninsula,he expanded it to 54 holes and doubled the purse from $5,000 to $10,000.

The field of 75 professionals and their amateur partners playedCypress Point on Friday, moved to Monterey Peninsula Country Club onSaturday and played the final round on Sunday at Pebble Beach. It waswindy the first day at Cypress Point, but Dick Metz fashioned a 67 andGeorge Fazio a 68. Ben Hogan shot 78.

Bing Crosby‘s drive on one of the holes on the front nine landed in atree. Bing spotted Johnny Weismuller playing down the next fairway,and yelled over, “Hey, Tarzan, I‘ve got a tree-climbing job for you.”

Ed Furgol and Fazio tied for first place at 213 with Sam Snead third at216. Furgol earned a share of the top spot as the result of an eagle 2 onthe 16th hole at Pebble Beach. He then parred in through a driving rainto finish with a par 72.

“I thought I had it won until Ed‘s eagle,” Fazio said.Sam Snead and Roger Kelly won the Pro-Am title with a score of 196.

This was the “Year of the Big Blow,” and the tournament was shortenedto 36 holes because of weather conditions.

High velocity winds, estimated at 45 miles-per-hour by the weatherbureau, sent scores soaring on Friday. Best round of the day was a 74 atCypress Point by Jimmy Demaret. Al Besselink needed two woods, a1-iron and a wedge to reach the par 4 17th hole. Two inches of rain duringthe night forced cancellation of the second round. Holes No. 4, 14 and 18at Monterey Peninsula Country Club were under water and unplayable.Sunny weather prevailed for Sunday's round at Pebble Beach.

This was the tournament where Dr. Cary Middlecoff and E. J. (Dutch)Harrison and their amateur partners marked the position of the golf ballson the 16th green at Cypress Point and started to walk off the course. Theymet venerable Peter Hay, the Pebble Beach pro, who asked them wherethey were going? “Peter, it‘s so windy out there you can‘t keep the ball onthe tee,” Middlecoff said. “Sure, and show me in the rule book where itsays you have to tee up the ball,” answered Hay. “Now, get back out thereand play.” And they did.

LEADERS: First round–Jimmy Demaret 74. Art Bell, Al Brosch, GuinaKop and Chuck Congdon 75. Second round–Jimmy Demaret 71–145. ArtBell 72–147.CUT: Tournament was 54 holes over three different courses.

Tony Holguin, a 27-year-old Texan making his first venture intoCalifornia, posted an amazing 9-under-par 63 to better the courserecord at the Monterey Peninsula Country Club’s Dunes course for afive-stroke lead in the opening round.

But the lean 5-8 golfer ballooned to an 81 the second day at CypressPoint and eventually wound up finishing one stroke out of the money at219. E. J. (Dutch) Harrison shot a 68 in the second round to take the 36-hole lead at 139 and added a closing 71 at Pebble Beach for a 210 total toedge Jimmy Demaret by one stroke. Tommy Bolt was third at 212.Harrison enjoyed the luxury of teeing off on the 18th hole in the finalround with a three-stroke lead and knowing that he could take a doublebogey 7 and still win. And Dutch took a double bogey on the par 5 hole,but still was happy with his $2,000 check.

Four teams tied for first place in the pro-am competition at 193. The co-champs were Bud Ward and Harvie Ward, Walter Burkemo and LeftyO’Doul,ArtWall, Jr. and Gene Littler and Doug Ford andMontyMoncrief.Bud and Harvie Ward shot a best-ball 62 in the final round to earn a shareof the top spot.

The weather started out bad and got worse as the tournament pro-gressed.

A drenching rain hit the Monterey Peninsula Thursday morning and50-mile per-hour winds whipped the golfers in the afternoon.Tournament officials compared the day to the worst they could remem-ber since the Bing Crosby tournament moved to the Monterey Peninsulain 1947. Only 17 of 150 professionals were able to match or better par and15 of those played at Monterey Peninsula Country Club.

Ed Furgol three-putted from two feet on the 17th green at PebbleBeach. His chip shot stopped two feet from the hole, and his first puttrimmed the cup and, accelerated by the wind, rolled six feet below thehole. His second putt also rimmed the cup and halted eight feet away.Furgol made that putt for a double bogey 5.

Taking advantage of a “perfect” day, cloudy and mild, Ken Venturiposted a 68 at Cypress Point on Saturday to take the lead with a score of209.

Venturi struggled through the rain and wind on Sunday for a 77, buthis 286 total still was three strokes ahead of runnersup Julius Boros andTommy Jacobs. Boros was one of four players to card one over par 73 thatday. The others were Doug Ford, Al Balding and Wes Ellis. Don January,who started three shots back of Venturi, birdied from the bunker on thethird hole as Venturi three-putted, and pulled to within one shot of thelead. But January blew his chances when he hooked his tee shot out ofbounds on the par-3 fifth and took a 4 after sinking a 40-foot putt. Hedouble bogeyed the par-3 seventh.

Gene Littler, who started two back of Venturi, pulled his tee shot intothe water hazard on the fifth for a double bogey and also bogeyed theeighth and ninth holes to go out in 40 and out of contention.

Bud Ward and Bob Silvestri won the Pro-Am with 262. Silvestrihelped Ward 37 strokes.

Bob Rosburg, who had lost in the finals of the California StateAmateur Championship three times, and twice had shared the lead inthe Bing Crosby National Pro-Am going into the final round, finallysnapped the Pebble Beach jinx.

The ex-Stanford star came from seven strokes back on Sunday to winin dramatic fashion with a 14-foot birdie putt on the 18th hole. He need-ed that putt to nose out Dave Ragan and Roberto de Vicenzo by one shot.

Rosburg shot 72 for a 282 total, but until he made that birdie putt, a totalof seven players had a chance to win. Bill Collins could have tied him witha birdie on the 18th, but 3-putted for a bogey 6 and wound up in a tie forfourth. Ted Kroll, the 54-hole leader at 203, shot a closing 81 and tied forfourth at 284 with Arnold Palmer, Gardner Dickinson and Collins.

In 1956 Rosburg shared the 36-hole lead with Dr. Cary Middlecoff at134, but shot 77 in the final round (the tournament was a 54-hole eventin those days) and finished in a tie for third. In 1958 he shared the 54-holelead with Billy Casper, but shot 81 the final day and tied for 10th.

Casper set a Pebble Beach course record on Saturday with a 65. Heneeded only 10 putts on the back nine.

The tournament was blessed with sunny, warmweather the first threedays. Sunday was cloudy, but mild. The final round attracted a recordcrowd of 35,000 fans.

Wes Ellis and Frank Tatum Jr. won the Pro-Am title with a score of252. Tatum helped Ellis 37 strokes.

This was the year when “Crosby Weather” hit its peak.Final round of play on Sunday was postponed because snow, rain,

hail and sleet made the course unplayable. The first four groups had justteed off when Joe Black, PGA Tour supervisor, called off play. DeanMartin had to pull out because of a motion picture commitment, leavingpro partner Ken Venturi to play alone. It cost Venturi money in the pro-am division.

The tournament wound up Monday with Doug Ford and JoeCampbell in a tie at 286. Ford won the sudden-death playoff on the firsthole with a 6-foot par putt after Campbell missed from 7-feet.

Ford had started the final round two strokes behind Campbell, buttied him on the 17th hole when Campbell hooked his tee shot into abunker and bogeyed the hole. Ford made an 8-foot par putt.

On the 18th, Ford made a 4 1/2-foot putt for his par after going pastthe hole. Campbell was three inches short on a 20-foot birdie putt. In theplayoff, Ford blasted out of a bunker to six feet. Campbell was just shortof the green on his second shot and putted 7-feet past, and missed comingback.

Ford hit only nine greens and shot 74.Art Doering had a hole-in-one on the 100 yard seventh hole at Pebble

Beach with a wedge on Thursday. Gary Player scored an ace on the 160-yard fifth hole at Pebble Beach on Friday with a 4-iron, and Al Geibergerhad a hole-in-one on the 122-yard 15th at Cypress Point on Saturdayusing an 8-iron.

Bob McCallister and Albie Pearson, who was given a “healthy” 10handicap, walked off with the pro-am title with a score of 255.

This was proclaimed the “Silver Anniversary” of the Crosbytournament, but it really was the 26th. Larry Crosby thought there hadbeen five tournaments held at Rancho Santa Fe when there actually weresix. But rather than cause confusion after the programs already had beenprinted, it was left that way.

It turned out to be an exciting tournament with Don Massengaleholing a 5-foot birdie putt on the 18th to register his first tour win with afinal round of 70 and a 283 total.

Massengale, who had started the final round four strokes behind AlGeiberger, needed the final birdie to fight off a challenge from ArnoldPalmer, who birdied three of his last four holes, to win by one stroke.Geiberger shot 75 to finish in a tie for third place with Billy Martindale.

More than 25,000 fans turned out for Thursday‘s opening round, andSaturday‘s attendance was estimated at 32,000, the largest third dayturnout in the history of the tournament.

Jack Nicklaus, among the leaders going to the 18th tee, watched hisfirst drive bounce off the left side of the fairway, hit the rocks anddisappear. His second effort also went over the bank. While helping tolook for the ball, PGA official George Walsh stumbled and fell in thewater. Nicklaus took a 9 on the hole and finished with 76 for a 295 total.

Chuck Courtney and Dr. John Moler shot a final round of 62 to tieMartindale and Bob Roos at 255 in the pro-am. Courtney and Moler wonthe title in a playoff.

The sun came out for the final round as George Archer shot a one-under-par 71 to win by one stroke over Bob Dickson, Dale Douglass andHowie Johnson. It rained the rest of the tournament. Thursday‘s roundwas cancelled because of rain. It was cloudy on Friday and the courseswere soggy. It was cloudy and rained in the afternoon on both Saturdayand Sunday. Johnny Pott shot a five-under-par 67 Saturday at SpyglassHill to better the course record of 70 set the year before by Bob Murphy.However, the mark was “unofficial” because the pros were “bumping”the ball on the soggy fairways, and also were teeing off well ahead of theblue tee markers.

Sunday, at Spyglass Hill, Archer played the back nine first and shot 39.On the 17th hole he dumped his second shot into the front left bunker.Normally a good sand player, Archer had trouble with the wet andmuddysand in the Spyglass traps and left his first attempt in the sand. He came outweakly on the second and then two-putted for a double bogey 6. On the18th Archer put his second shot in another bunker. Again he left his firsteffort in the trap, and then blasted 20 feet past the cup. He three-putted fora triple bogey seven.

But he came back on the front nine (his second) for a round of 72.He hit only one bunker on Monday, the 17th at Pebble Beach, and this

time came out three feet from the cup and saved his par 3.Jack Nicklaus four-putted the 14th green at Spyglass and Bob Lunn

four-putted the 11th, had four other three-putt greens and still shot 73.Bob Dickson and Jack Ging won the Pro-Am division with a score of

257. Ging, a 9-handicapper, helped Dickson 27 strokes.

Tom Shaw, attired in the colors of his alma mater–green (turtleneck)and yellow (sweater and slacks)–beat Arnold Palmer and his Army on aglorious Sunday afternoon.

“This was the calmest I‘ve ever seen it here in January,” Palmerdeclared. “It was unbelieveable.”

Palmer‘s Army believed its leader was on his way to the victory whenhe mounted a typical charge in the final round. Palmer chipped in for aneagle 3 on the second hole to gain a tie with Shaw. But bogeys on thefifth, seventh and ninth holes cost Palmer dearly as Shaw played thefront nine in 32 for a four-shot advantage. The University of Oregon-product faltered coming in, with bogeys at the 17th and 18th, but hisround of 70, to Palmer‘s 71, was enough for a two-stroke victory.

Jack Montgomery, a pro from Fort Worth, Texas, took a 15 at Pebble‘s10th hole after going over the edge of the fairway onto the rocks.

LEADERS: First round–Tom Shaw (CP), Bobby Nichols (CP) and TerryDill (SH) shot 68s to share one-stroke lead over Howie Johnson (CP). Sec-ond round–Shaw (SH), Johnson (SH) and Paul Harney, 68 (SH) tied at 139to lead Bobby Nichols, Bob Murphy and Arnold Palmer by one. Thirdround–Shaw 69 (PB) led at 208 with Palmer 69 (PB) 209 and Johnson 210.CUT: The 54-hole cut was 223 with 80 professionals competing in finalround. Team cut was 201 with 37 teams surviving.WEATHER: Thursday–Sunny with 15-20 mph winds in afternoon. Rest ofweek sunny with balmy 78 degrees on Sunday.

One of the wettest golf experiences on record occurred at the 33rdCrosby. Rain wiped out Thursday‘s opening round, but Johnny Miller‘s72–on a day when 80 was a good score–proved prophetic. Only 20 of the162 pros completed play on Thursday, so Friday‘s round became theofficial opener, and in that one rookie Gary McCord took a two-strokelead with a 65 at Cypress Point, while rookie Barney Thompson had a 67at Pebble.

“Who?” asked Jack Nicklaus, the defending champion when askedabout the two rookies.

Saturday‘s round began in the rain and ended in hail. The finalgroups were called in and told to complete their second rounds onSunday, with Miller and McCord tied for the lead. Miller opened a four-stroke lead on the field in Sunday‘s third round, firing a 70 at PebbleBeach as McCord skied to an 80, also at Pebble. Another storm hit thecourse on Monday, and Miller was declared the winner of thetournament. He and amateur partner Locke de Brettville of Woodsidewon the Pro-Am with scores of 64-67-65–196.

LEADERS: First round–Gary McCord (CP) shot 7-under-par 65 to leadLanny Wadkins (CP) and Barney Thompson (PB) by two. Secondround–McCord added 73 at SH for 138 to share lead with Johnny Miller(SH) who had 70. Third round–Miller (PB) added 70 at PB for 8-under-par 208 and four-stroke lead over Grier Jones, 72 (PB).CUT: Pro cut was 223 with 71 survivors. Team cut was 204 with27 teams.WEATHER: Thursday’s round cancelled, heavy rain. Fri-day–Rain off and on all day. Saturday–Rain and some sun. Sun-day–Rain and hail on all courses.

When Jack Nicklaus moved into a one-stroke lead over Mike Morleyafter 54 holes, the 35th Crosby looked like it was over. But Nicklaus, afterrounds of 67-72-70, scraped the ball around Pebble Beach in the finalround for an 82. His second nine 45 included two triple bogeys and adouble bogey.

On the 18th hole Nicklaus hit his second shot into Carmel Bay. “I haddriven the ball so darned far that I figured if I was going to shoot 79, Imight as well finish in glory,” he said. Instead, his fourth shot found thefront bunker, and he took four more shots to get down with an 8 on thepar 5 hole.

Meanwhile, 24-year-old Ben Crenshaw, who had started the day threestrokes behind Nicklaus, shot 34-35–69 for his second victory as a pro, his281 total edging Morley by two strokes. The win was the first forCrenshaw since 1973, when he won his first event as a pro, the SanAntonio-Texas Open. “I just turned 24, but here I am already making acomeback,” Crenshaw said.

LEADERS: First round–Jack Nicklaus andMikeMorley, both CP, had 67sto lead George Johnson (CP) by a stroke. Second round–Dave Hill tiedCypress Point record with 65 to lead David Graham by two strokes. Thirdround–Nicklaus fired a 70 (PB) to lead Morley by one.CUT: After 54 holes 63 pros at 225. (Additional 13 pros at 226 exempt forHawaii) Jerry McGee at 224 withdrew from final round.

Nathaniel Crosby stepped forward as tournament host following thedeath of his father the previous October. “I don’t think we ever consid-ered calling off the tournament,” the 16-year-old Crosby said. “When hepassed away, my mother asked me if I thought we should continue itand I said, ’Sure, let‘s put it on because it‘s what Dad wanted.’”

The first round was pushed back to Friday after an inch and a half ofrain soaked the courses on Wednesday night. The delay didn‘t botherdefending champion TomWatson–he opened with a 66 at Cypress Pointto take a three-stroke lead on the field.

Watson slipped to a 74 in the second round at Spyglass, regained ashare of the lead with a 72 on Sunday at Pebble Beach and fired a 69 atPebble in the final round. But he was caught by Ben Crenshaw, who shota 67, for a deadlock at 280. Watson then won the playoff on the secondextra hole, parring the 17th.

Sporting a five-stroke lead going into the final round, Lon Hinkle bal-looned to a 77 and finished in a three-way tie with Andy Bean and MarkHayes. Hinkle hung on to win by making a 12-foot birdie putt on thethird extra hole.

Following the third round Hinkle was confident. “I like this,” he said.“Mark has to give me two strokes on the front side and three on theback.” But it was Hinkle who gave strokes–back to the course. His driveon the first hole stopped in a divot, and things went downhill from there.

However, Hayes also encountered problems. Alone in first place, hefour-putted Pebble‘s 15th green from eight feet to fall back into a tie withHinkle and Bean.

Bean and Bill Bunting, a 14-handicapper from Tampa, Florida, won thePro-Am by eight strokes with a score of 257.

The 41st Crosby began with an orange ball falling into the cup for ahole-in-one at Cypress Point‘s famous 16th and ended when a white ballwas sucked off line toward the Pacific Ocean.

Jerry Pate made the ace at Cypress Point, Craig Stadler the off-lineshot at Pebble Beach, his drive at the 17th landing on the rocks. Stadler‘sfinal-round bogey at the 17th helped put Jim Simons in command, andthe stockbroker/golfer went on to birdie 17 and par 18 for a 66 and a two-stroke win. Simons‘ total of 14-under par 274 was a record for a Crosbythat included play at Spyglass Hill.

Pate wasn‘t the only player using a non-white golf ball. BruceLietzke, the co-first-round leader, played a chartreuse ball.

Unknown Ken Green opened a three-stroke lead on the field after thesecond round, but then Tom Kite took over. In Saturday‘s third roundKite fashioned a course-record 62 at Pebble Beach, and on Sunday, in therain, he held off Calvin Peete and Rex Caldwell for a two-stroke victory.

Kite‘s 62 required only 21 putts–and just eight on the back nine, as hetossed in a 40-foot chip-in.

The victory was the fifth in Kite‘s 11-year career, and it required somesteadying during the final round, as he bogeyed the 15th, 16th and 17thcoming in. “I guess I was a little anxious to get my name on the (trophy)glass,” he said. Kite shot a 12-under 276 for the four rounds.

Green, who closed with a 76, finished in a tie for seventh place.

LEADERS: First round–Joe Inman shot a seven-under par 65 at PebbleBeach and led by one over Ken Green and Fred Couples. Secondround–Green, with a 68 at Pebble, was at 10-under 134 and led by threeover Gary McCord and Jim Thorpe. Third round–Tom Kite set a courserecord 10-under par 62 at Pebble Beach for a 13-under par 203 and led bytwo over Green, Rex Caldwell and Donnie Hammond.CUT: 75 pros at one-over par 217 after 54 holes, with the low 60 (61 pros)playing the final round.

The 43rd Crosby will be remembered for golf balls striking foreignobjects. Ex-President Gerald Ford beaned a woman spectator in thetemple with a shanked tee ball at Spyglass‘s 15th hole during the secondround. Hale Irwin conked the rocks off the 18th fairway at Pebble Beach.

Irwin‘s shot during the final round keyed one of the most memorablefinishes in tournament history. With Jim Nelford the leader in theclubhouse at 10-under 278, Irwin came to the 18th tee trailing by a stroke.His drive veered left into the rocks, but, incredibly, ticked off a boulderand soared back to the fairway. Given new life, Irwin stroked a 3-wood, asand wedge to five feet and sank the birdie putt to tie Nelford.

In the playoff, after both made par at the 15th, Irwin skied a 3-wood teeshot at the 16th, ending up in a fairway bunker with, he estimated, 213yards to the pin. He then laced a perfect 2-iron to nine feet and sank thatbirdie putt for the win.

Ford and Irwin weren‘t the only players to hit strange shots. DaveDalby, a former Oakland Raiders center in the Pro-Am, was asked howhe was doing. “Well, so far I‘ve hit a car and an outhouse,” he said.

LEADERS: First round–Bob Murphy (SH), Jim Nelford (SH) andThomas Gray (PB) shot 5-under-par 67 for 1-stroke lead over WillieWood, Mark O’Meara and Corey Pavin. Second round–John Adams 67(CP) and Willie Wood 69 (CP) led at 7-under-par 137, one ahead of HaleIrwin and Craig Stadler.

And when thetournament came down to the final hole, Pebble‘s 18th, they were still 1-2.O‘Meara sank a par-saving 12-foot putt after being bunkered at the 17thand parred the 18th to maintain the lead, but had to sweat out Strange‘s13-foot birdie try, which just missed, before claiming the victory.

Jack Nicklaus‘s amateur partner was his 23-year-old son Jackie.

Cypress Point, a tournament venue since 1947, was succeeded by thenewer Poppy Hills, which quickly earned the respect of the tour pros. “Itdefinitely has the attention of the players,” said pro Mike Hulbert. “Idon‘t know if you can shoot a good round there and win the tournament,but you sure could lose it there.”

In the third round Paul Azinger needed 73 strokes to get aroundPoppy and later groused that “the best hole on that course is the 19th.”But by Sunday afternoon he wasn‘t complaining; he eagled Pebble‘s 2ndhole and cruised to a 67 for a four-stroke win over Corey Pavin and BrianClaar. Azinger pocketed $198,000 from the record $1.1 million purse.

John Cook and TV soap opera star Jack Wagner won the Pro-Am witha score of 33-under 255.

Ideal, warm conditions greeted the field in 1992, and it responded withone of the most memorable assaults on par in the history of thetournament. Mark Wiebe and Jeff Sluman led the way in the first roundwith 64s at Pebble Beach, tying the course record for playing the balldown, and 75 pros in all broke par on the three tournament courses.

Bob Lohr and Patrick Henry Horgan III took over the lead after 36holes, but were only a stroke in front of Sluman, three-timeCrosby/AT&T winner Mark O’Meara, Lanny Wadkins and TomSieckmann. Comedian Bill Murray, a first-time competitor, emerged as agallery favorite. The “Caddyshack” star charmed all he encountered bywearing a cap shaped like the Hubert H. HumphreyMetrodome. And onthe 1st tee at Spyglass Hill, Murray brought a little show-business to hisround, “taking 10” to down a beer and polish off a polish dog beforeteeing off.

O’Meara fired a third-round 68 at Pebble Beach to take a two-strokelead over Sluman. Paul Azinger and Raymond Floyd tied Pebble’scourse record with 64s, and it took a tournament record score of 1-under215 to make the cut.

The final round went to a playoff as O’Meara and Sluman tied at 13-under-par 275, O’Meara shooting a 70 and Sluman a 68. O’Meara sank a35-foot birdie putt from against the fringe at the 72nd hole to force suddendeath, then drained a 12-footer for a winning par on the first extra hole.

“I just must be the Pro-Am king or something,” said O’Meara, whosevictories at Pebble also include the AT&Ts in 1989 and 1990; the Crosbyin 1985, and the California Amateur in 1979.

Greg Norman and 20-handicap partner Kerry Packer won the pro-amdivision with a score of 42-under-par 246.


LEADERS: First round–Mark Wiebe (PB) and Jeff Sluman (PB) shot 8-under-par 64s and led J. P. Horgan (PB) and Tom Purtzer (PB) by twostrokes. Second round–Horgan added a 70 (SH) and Bob Lohr (PB) shot67 to share 36-hole lead at 136. Sluman, Mark O’Meara, Lanny Wadkinsand Tom Sieckmann were tied at 137. Third round–O’Meara moved into54-hole lead with 68 (PB) for a 205 total. Sluman with 70 at Poppy Hillswas at 207 and Paul Azinger and Ray Floyd, both with 64s at PebbleBeach were tied at 208.CUT: 82 pros at even par 216, but only low 60 and ties (68) at 1-under-par 215 played Sunday. Team cut was 20-under-par 196 with 26 teamsplaying final round.WEATHER: Spectacular every day. Rain Friday night, but skies hadcleared before Saturday’s play started.

Brett Ogle swept in the previous year and won the AT&T NationalPro-Am on his first try.

But things were a lot different in 1994. Ogle didn’t make the 54-holecut, shooting 76-73-73—222.

Meanwhile, two veterans, who have won here before, waged a finalday battle before Johnny Miller, a 46-year-old who almost had decidedhe was too old to compete on the regular tour, fought off Tom Watson towin. It was Miller’s second victory over 72 holes (1987-1994) and thirdoverall. He won a rain-shortened 54-hole tournament (1974).

“It’s nice to let people know that I still can play the Tour. I didn’tknow if my putting would hold up. I came here to have fun, but theweather changed in my favor.”

Watson, who won the Pro-Am in 1977 and 1978 and the U.S. Opentitle here in 1982, said he played well enough to win, “but I didn’t puttwell enough to win.

Watson, who started the final round one stroke behind Miller, had aone shot lead going to the 16th hole. But he three putted there and threeputted again on the 17th. His approach on the final hole carried past thepin and he missed his birdie attempt which might have earned him a tie.

Dudley Hart got the tournament off to a fast start with a new courserecord of 65, seven-under-par, at Poppy Hills. Davis Love III had a 66Friday at Pebble Beach to lead at the half-way mark with 135. Hartregained the lead on Saturday with a 70 at Spyglass Hill for 206 withMiller at 207 and Watson 208.

Hart and Robert Floyd, son of professional Raymond Floyd, won thepro-am title with a 258 total. Steve John, a 4-handicap, won the LeviStrauss trophy for the amateur helping his professional the most, con-tributing 31 strokes. Professional Glen Day had an individual score of296. The team posted a score of 265. BishopWilliam E. Swing helped pro-fessional Robin Freeman 30 strokes.

Twenty-six days of rain in January produced a new format for the 1995AT&T National Pro-Am golf tournament.

For the first time since it moved to the Monterey Peninsula in 1947, nopractice rounds were played on any of the three tournament coursesprior to the start of competition. And, another first, players were allowedto lift, clean and place their ball during all three rounds because of thesoggy condition of the courses.

Peter Jacobsen won the individual pro championship with three sub-par rounds and a 17-under-par total of 271, but he wasn’t able to getamateur partner Jack Lemmon into the final round for the first time. Thecutoff in the Pro-Am was 195 and Jacobsen and Lemmon posted a 200.

They were 10-under-par on the 18th tee at Poppy Hills on Saturday.Jacobsen took a 7 on the par-5 hole. Lemmon needed a par to get theminto the final round. He couldn’t do it and took a 9.

Jacobsen claimed three new tournament records. His win ning mark of271 bettered the old 72-hole mark of 273 set by Tom Watson in 1977. Hisfinal round of 65 clipped one stroke off the old record set by Jim Simonsin 1982 and tied by Johnny Miller in 1987, and his final 36-hold total of 66-65—131 bet tered the old mark of 68-66—134 by Miller in 1987.

Jacobsen and Lemmon have played together 14 years. The closestthey have come to making the cut was in 1991 and 1994. Both years theymissed by only two strokes.

“Winning the tournament isn’t as important as Lemmon making thecut,” said Jacobsen. “Jack came out and walked the first five holes withme on Sunday. He would have loved to have been playing.”

David Duval, a rookie coming off the 1994 Nike Tour, claimed secondplace with a score of 273. Duval had three straight rounds of 67 afteropening with a par 72.

Duval also won the Pro-Am title. Paired with Hughes Norton, a 9-handicapper, they checked in with 254—34 un der. Jack Nicklaus, playingwith his son Steve, finished second at 255. Pro Bruce Vaughan, playing withMasashi Yamada, actually turned in the lowest score, a 251. But they weredisqualified because it was ruled Yamada had an in cor rect handicap.Vaughan was allowed to keep his first-place check.

Rain, wind and soggy conditions caused cancellation of the 1996AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am tournament.

It was the first time in the 50 years of the event that it could not becompleted. And it was the first time a PGA Tour event could not becompleted since the 1949 Colonial.

Play was called at noon Sunday after two rounds.It was especially disappointing for Jeff Maggert, who held a one-

stroke lead after the 36 holes.“But they made the right decision,” said Maggert, who

had fired two straight 68s for a 136 score, said. “You have to play by therules—you can’t change them in the middle of a tour na ment.”

Tournament Director Louis Russo announced two holes at SpyglassHill Nos. 11 and 16 were partly under water and it would not be fair toask one third of the field to play them under such difficult conditions.

Justin Leonard, 23-year-old U.S. Amateur champion, and John Elliott,32, a Nike Tour graduate, shot 67s to tie for the first-round lead. Leonardtoured Poppy Hills and Elliott played Pebble Beach.

Maggert soared to the lead Friday at Pebble Beach. After a lacklustrefront nine, he posted four straight birdies on the back side to finish strong.

“I always seem to play well at Pebble Beach,” Maggert said.The prospect of an exciting finish on the weekend was heightened by

the rise of Tom Watson, whose 69 Friday at Spyglass Hill left him trailingMaggert by two shots.

Watson, who had won the tournament twice as well as the 1982 U.S.Open at Pebble Beach, was scheduled to play the final two rounds atthat course.

“I love the course—I just have to go out and try to win myself a golftournament,” he said after Friday‘s play. But Saturday‘s play waswashed out, as well as Sunday‘s.

Loren Roberts, Steve Jones and Davis Love III, all at 137, wereMaggert‘s closest pursuers.

The team of Howard Clark and amateur Michael Enthoven was thepro-am leader at 20-under-par 124 when play was halted.

Mark O’Meara, apparently intent on becoming a legend on theMonterey Peninsula, won his fifth Crosby/AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Amwith a one-stroke victory over hard-charg ing Tiger Woods and DavidDuval.

The veteran O’Meara, 40, posted a record-breaking 20-under-par 268to nip rookie sensation Woods, who started Sunday seven shots behind,and third-round leader Duval.

In an event where nary a drop of rain fell, O’Meara logged fourstraight 67s. But he had to finish with birdies on 16 and 17 at PebbleBeach to ward off his pursuers. Woods, who closed with a 63 and 64 atPebble Beach, needed to eagle the par-5 18th to tie O’Meara. His 267-yard3-wood reached the green, but his 35-foot putt slipped past the hole.

Duval, who had tied Pebble’s course record with a 62 Saturday, couldonly post a 71 on Sunday despite a final-hole birdie.

“If I’m going to have success, I couldn’t ask for a better place to findit than Pebble Beach,” O’Meara said. “Somebody up there is lookingafter me. I don’t know if it’s the blimp, or somewhere higher.”

Paul Stankowski teamed with actor Andy Garcia to cap ture the Pro-Am division. Garcia, an 18 handicapper, credited a hot putter for hisshowing. Their 43-under-par 245 was a tournament record.


LEADERS: First round—Jesper Parnevik and David Duval posted 65s atPoppy Hills to lead Brian Henninger (PH), Billy Andrade (SH) and TomLehman (PH) by a stroke. Sec ond round—Jim Furyk (PH), at 12-under132, led by one over David Frost (PB). Third round—Duval (PB), at 18-under 198, led Mark O’Meara (PB) and Furyk (PB) by three shots.CUT: 75 pros made the cut at 3-under 213; 65 pros played on Sunday at4-under 212. Team cut was 24 under.WEATHER: Sunny and warm Thursday, mostly overcast Fri day andSaturday, sunny and cool Sunday.

Phil Mickelson had to wait six months and twenty days, but the$550,000 bonanza made it worthwhile.

In what was billed the longest-running golf tournament in the world,the 1998 AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-am started January 29 and finishedAugust 17. El Niño-engendered storms ravaged the Monterey Peninsula,restricting play to but 36 holes-nine on Thursday, nine on Friday and 18 onSaturday. When rains hit Sunday and Monday, it was decided to postponethe final round. The date of August 17 was chosen because most pros,completing the PGA Championship August 16 in Redmond, WA, could flyto Pebble Beach on a charter the next day to finish the $2.5 million event.

“It was weird to have kind of a one-round tournament,” said Mickelson,“but after ( the AT&T cancellation) in 1996, I was glad they decided to finishthis thing, and not just because I won. This (victory) means a lot to me. Itwas a special day.”

The left-handed swinging Mickelson (65-70-67), who was only one shotbehind after the first and second rounds, fired a 67 at Pebble Beach to posthis 14-under-par 202 and nip Tom Pernice, Jr. (67-69-67) by a stroke. the firstprize was $450,000 and Mickelson picked up $100,000 more as a bonus forleading the PGA’s West Coast swing in money winnings. The 202 tied forthe lowest score in tournament history. Cary Middlecoff shot his 202 in 1956when it was a scheduled 54-hole event.

Because the 125 pros (out of 168) who returned to the event on August17 were spread over three courses, Mickelson often wasn’t sure how hestood coming down the stretch. But friends told him on the 18th tee that hewas tied with Pernice,who was forging his 67 at Poppy Hills. Mickelsonopted to go for the win on the scary par-5 hole, lacing a perfect drive andthen hitting a 2 iron 244 yards to 30 feet from the cup. he easily two-puttedfor his birdie to wrap it up.

Tom Watson and Tim Herron, who were tied for the lead after 36holes, faded in the final round. Watson, fighting a balky putter, shot 72 atPoppy Hills and Herron slipped to a 74 at Spyglass.

The lift, clean and place rule was in effect for all three rounds.To ease the traffic on water-logged greens, officials cancelled

competition for the amateurs after two round. John Purcell of Carmeland pro Gary Nicklaus were leading with a 20-under 122. The decisionwas a heartbreaker for actor Jack Lemmon, who was 16 under with proPeter Jacobsen and in a position to make the cut for the first time.

“Jack and Peter had a lock on making it,” singer Huey Lewis said. “Iwish we could have finished. This is what it’s all about, trying to hit theball with the wind blowing the club out of your hands. I’d play in ahurricane or a snowstorm at Pebble Beach.”

The thought never occurred to Payne Stewart when he knocked hisapproach iron Saturday to within a foot of the hole on No. 18 at SpyglassHill that the shot might win him the 1999 AT&T Pebble Beach NationalPro-am Tournament.

Stewart had just bogeyed the 17th to fall into a tie for the lead withFrank Lickliter at 9 under par. But his 5-iron gem on the par-4 18th fora tap-in birdie was good enough to give him a 73 and a 10-under 206 inthe rain-shortened, 54-hole event.

But that win – and his subsequent win at the 1999 U.S. Open inPinehurst, North Carolina–signaled to Stewart far more than his statusas a champion.

“I see coming to Pebble Beach as a symbol of my rebirth,” Stewartsaid in a September 1999 interview regarding his planned appearancesat the 2000 AT&T and U.S. Open events. “To wear the champion’scrown there will mean more to me than just simply as a golfer.”

Sadly and tragically, Stewart lost his life, along with five others,October 25, 1999, in an airplane crash. But he left at the top of his game,both as a human being and as a golfer.

Unmistakable on the course in his knickers and Hogan cap, Stewartwielded a smooth, elegant and completely controlled swing. Heembodied the spirit of the game, often participating in charitableactivities surrounding a tournament. Those included the star-studdedPro-Am Shoot-Out and his turn as a harmonica-playing vocalist withJake Trout and the Flounders, a musical group of touring pros.

Perhaps Stewart’s most cherished visit to Pebble Beach was the1993 Pro-Am, where he finished tied for ninth, at five under par. Whatmeant the most to him was his win of the pro-am portion of thecompetition with his partner Jim Morris, a close friend of Stewart’sfather, who had died in 1987.

“It’s like playing with my Dad,” Stewart said after accepting thetrophy. “Since I didn’t get the opportunity to do that, this means a lotto me.”

Pebble Beach and the world of golf will no longer have theopportunity to celebrate the game with Stewart. But there will be manyjoyous reminders of his spirit...

After pleasant weather the first two days, high winds hit the threecourses Saturday. Some players teed off Sunday in the rain and wind, buttour officials suspended play at mid-morning and officially canceled thefourth round at 2 p.m. It was only the fifth time the tournament was cutoff at 54-holes since it went to a 72-hole format in 1958.

For Stewart, it was his first PGA Tour victory since the 1995 HoustonOpen. While Stewart’s birdie Saturday at 18 didn’t seem significant tohim at the time, his amateur partner Jim Morris had a good feeling.

“I really thought the tournament was over when he hit that shot,” saidMorris, who had teamed with Stewart to capture the 1993 pro-am title.

Stewart, 42, who banked $504,000 with the victory, said he wanted togo the full 72 holes to prove to himself that he was really back.

“I wanted that opportunity,” said Stewart. “But I’m not going tolie-it feels pretty good. I’m going to take this and run.”

Stewart, who had posted a brilliant 64 Friday at Poppy Hills, got hisbig break in the pairings. Spyglass is mostly protected by trees, keepinghim out of the winds that swept the Monterey Peninsula on Saturday.The average score Saturday at the more exposed Pebble Beach was 79.38,compared to 75.5 at Spyglass and 75.23 at Poppy Hills.

It wasn’t a total disappointment for Lickliter (68-68-71–207). Hisrunner-up finish was his best on tour and earned him $302,400. He alsopicked up $7,000 for winning the pro-am division with 12-handicapperRobert MacDonnel, an investment banker from Hillborough, CA. Theyshot 63-65-66 and actually finished in a three-way tie at 22-under-par 194with pro Craig Stadler and amateur Glenn Frey and pro Neal Landcasterand amateur Robert Scott. But the tie-breaker was which pro scored thelowest, and Lickliter’s 207 nipped Stadler’s 209 and Lancaster’s 211.LEADERS: First round–Greg Kraft (PB), Brett Quigley (PB) and PeterJacobsen (PH) fired 6-under 66s. Second round–Payne Stewart (PH) at 11-under 133, was three ahead of Frank Lickliter (PH) and Vijay Singh (PH)at 8-under 136. Third Round:–Stewart (SH), at10-under 206, held a one-stroke lead over Lickliter (SH). Craig Stadler (PH) was three back. FredCouples (PH), Ronnie Black (SH), Justin Leonard (SH) and JayWilliamson (SH) trailed by four.

CUT:After 54 holes, 70 players at 4-over-par 220 from a field of 180 madecut. Of the 70, 65 were due to play on Sunday. five made the cut and gotofficial money, but weren’t listed to play final round. Pro-am cut was 199,with 25 teams to play Sunday.

WEATHER: Beautiful Thursday and Friday, with gentle winds. Saturday- overcast, with winds averaging 25 mph, gusting to 50. sunday - steadyrain with 25-mph wind. Lift, clean and place rule in effect first threerounds on all courses. Play suspended at 9:30 a.m. Sunday, with finalround canceled by 2 p.m.

Despite his well-earned reputation for doing the impossible on golfcourses, there didn’t seem to be any way Tiger Woods could win the2000 AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am tournament.

Sure, he was five strokes behind going into the final round and thatwas no big deal. But after 11 holes he was seven shots in arrears, with fiverivals in front of him. Even the most devoted of Tiger’s Troupe werelooking to the exit gates.

Mistake.Big Mistake.It would take a spectacular rally by Woods combined with a

breakdown by surging tournament leader Matt Gogel for theimplausible to become reality. Woods missed birdie putts at 12 and 14,but his game was clearly heating up. Then, the memorable par-4 15th.Woods’ 97-yard wedge landed four feet from the cup and trickled intothe hole for an eagle.

“I’m back in it,” Woods said with a wide grin to amateur partner JerryChang.

And how! His approach shot at 16 missed the cup by an inch and hemade the easy birdie putt. Those shots at 15 and 16 were described bySports Illustrated as “what may be, given the circumstances, the bestback-to-back approach shots ever seen on the PGA Tour.”

Woods topped off his brilliant round of 64—best finish by a winner inthe 53-year history of the tournament—with a birdie at 18. That put himat 15-under 273.

Now it was up to Gogel, a 29-year-old tour rookie seeking his firstwin, to hang on to an evaporating lead. Bogeys at 11 and 12 staggeredGogel, who had played the front nine in 5-under-par-31. Marching alonga half-hour behind Woods, Gogel didn’t know Woods had taken the leaduntil he got to the 16th hole.

“I really thought it was Vijay (Singh) or Notah (Begay) who wereone or two strokes behind me,” Gogel said. “To see Tiger’s name,well, I was amazed. I will not be amazed anymore.”

Even at that, Gogel could have forced a playoff with a birdie at theocean-lined 18th. But his 10-foot putt slid 2-feet long. And, showing hisinexperience, he missed the par putt – an error that cost him $80,000.

“I just got careless,” said Gogel, whose 40 on the back nine for 71 and274 earned him $352,000 and left him tied for second with Singh.

The victory was Woods’ sixth in a row on the PGA Tour, tying BenHogan’s streak in 1948. It also ended Woods’ run (he lost the followingweek to Phil Mickelson in the Buick Invitational at La Jolla, CA).Woods pocketed $720,000, plus an extra $7,500 in the pro-am division,for his work on the Monterey Peninsula.

“I was aiming for a 64,” Woods said of his AT&T histrionics. “I justtried to keep plodding along and post a number early. I just wanted togive myself a chance. I like being in a position coming from behind.There’s definitely less pressure that way.”

Rain and wind interrupted play on Thursday and prompted PGATour officials to act decisively. They announced the first round would becompleted Friday and the event would go 72 holes if at all possible. Thatsent the tournament into Monday, keeping dozens of media from aroundthe world on site to witness Tiger Woods’ greatest comeback of his 17PGA Tour victories.

Pro Skip Kendall and amateur partner David Gill, a farmer fromKing City, CA, shot 64, 63, 58, 64, and 249 to capture the pro-am side.They were 39 under par-four under the tournament record of 43. Theirbest-ball 58 on Sunday tied three other teams for the lowest score in thehistory of the event. Gill, a 5-handicapper, also won the Most ValuableAmateur Award for helping his pro the most—35 strokes over 72 holes.

LEADERS: First round–Vijay Singh (PH), David Duval (PH) and NotahBegay (PH) shared lead with 66s to front four players by one shot. Secondround–Singh (PB) fired bogey-free 67 to total 11-under-par 133, good forone-stroke lead over Begay (PB). Third Round–Matt Gogel (PB) andMark Brooks (PH) shared lead at 12-under 204, with Singh (PH) one shotback.

CUT: After 54 holes, 70 players at 1-over-par 217 from a field of 180pros. Sixty played on Monday at even-par 216. Team cut was 18-under 198, with 25 teams playing Monday.

WEATHER: Lift, clean and place rule was in effect through thegreens for all four rounds on all courses. Tour officials suspendedplay at 11:27 a.m. Thursday because of rain and 25-30 mph winds,gusting to 45.

At 2:10 p.m. the first round was officially postponed to 10 a.m. Friday. OnFriday, light morning rain gave way to afternoon sun. Scattered showers andlight winds greeted players on Saturday. Sunday was partly sunny, withtemperatures in low 60s. Fog suspended morning play briefly at Poppy Hillsand Pebble Beach and for more than an hour at Spyglass Hill. On Monday, itwas cool and cloudy.

2001FEBRUARY 1-4

The 2001 AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am probably can best bedescribed as glorious.

That’s one glorious for the weather–four days of warmth andsunshine. And another glorious to describe the game of Davis Love III,who roared from seven shots behind the leaders on Sunday to win hisfirst PGA Tour event in almost three years.

Love did it in record style. Like, how about a 28 on the front nine,which tied the tournament record and was only one stroke shy of the all-time PGA Tour mark? And in going eight under par after seven holes,Love tied the longest consecutive birdie-eagle streak in tour history. Healso equaled the best final-round, come-from-behind triumph in Crosby-AT&T history (1961 winner Bob Rosburg also started the last roundseven shots back).

After shooting 71-71-69 for a seven-under 209, Love was tied with fiveother pros in 14th place Saturday night.

“I didn’t think I had a chance to win, yet I recalled Tiger (Woods)was seven behind with seven holes to play last year (2000) and won,so you never know,” Love said. But after needing only 20 strokes onthe first seven holes, which included an 108-yard pitch-in for an eagleat No. 2, Love found himself leading the event. He managed a one-under 35 on the back nine for a 63, producing the lowest round intournament history not played under lift-clean-place conditions.

Love’s 16-under-par gem gave him a 272 total and a one-shotvictory over Vijay Singh. Love had to wait 45 minutes to claim histrophy because his closest pursuers were still on the course. Singh’sbid died when he drove into the ocean at 17. Phil Mickelson put on astretch run, birdieing 16 and 17. He needed a birdie at 18 to tie, but histry to reach the green in two failed when he hit driver from the fairwayinto the ocean.

Defending champion Woods finished 13th, eight shots back, andnever was a serious threat.

The Tiger Woods-Jerry Chang and the Mickelson-Kenny G teams tiedfor first place in the pro-am division. Their 254s were 34 under par. It wasruled they would share the title rather than go into a playoff. ScottMcNealy of Portola Valley won the most-valuable-amateur award, givento the player who helps his pro the most over 72 holes. McNealycontributed 35 strokes in aiding pro Jesper Parnevik to their sixth-placefinish.

The lift-clean-place rule was in effect all three days at Spyglass Hilland Poppy Hills, but entrants played the ball down at Pebble Beach forthe four rounds.

LEADERS: First round–David Berganio Jr. tied the course record atSpyglass Hill with a 64. Second round–Matt Gogel broke the Poppy

181

Hills course record with a 10-under-par 62 for a 13-under 131 and ledby three shots over Vijay Singh. Third round–Phil Mickelson (66) andOlin Browne (65) moved into a tie for first at 14-under 202. Singh wastwo back.

CUT: 72 pros made the cut at 2-under-par 214 from a field of 180.Twenty-five amateurs played Sunday. The pro-am cut was 20-under 196.

WEATHER: Dry all week. It was sunny and 59 degrees on Thursday andit was mostly clear and in the low 60s on Friday. It climbed to 68 onSaturday and 81 on Sunday in protected areas, with light winds.

2002JANUARY 31- FEBRUARY 3

For Matt Gogel, it was a matter of unfinished business.Only two years earlier, then-rookie Gogel thought his chances of

winning the AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am were well in hand. Although he entered the final round tiedwith Mark Brooks at 12-under-par 204, he was playing a course heloved with supreme confidence.

And Tiger Woods, always a threat, was five shots behind. In fact,after 11 holes, Gogel led Woods by seven. But, alas, as is his way, Tigerrallied to win by two strokes over a fading Gogel.

No wonder Gogel attacked the 2002 tournament with a passion.This time it was Gogel roaring from behind to win his first career PGA

Tour victory in his 62nd start on the pro circuit.It didn't come easy. Gogel, a 30-year-old Kansan, was tied with Lee

Janzen at 11-under 204–four shots behind leader Pat Perez–coming tothe Sunday finale.

Gogel picked up two strokes on Perez on the front nine. But, afterbirdieing the 13th hole, Perez still had a one-shot lead. Unfortunately, itunraveled for him at the par-5 14th. Opting to hit a 3-wood for his sec-ond, Perez pumped the ball out of bounds and slammed his club downin disgust.

“With that pin, that green, I wanted to get as close as I could,” hesaid later.

With the double bogey 7, Perez trailed Gogel by two. But there stillwas drama to be staged.

Perez, who starred on the 1996 Arizona State national championshipteam, birdied 15 and 17. Gogel–playing one hole ahead–had bogeyedthe par-3 17th. So as Perez stood on the 18th tee, he led by one andmaybe needed only a par to clinch the victory. Instead of playing it safewith a 3-wood, the ever-aggressive Perez hit driver and the ball sailedinto a hedge, which was ruled out of bounds.

As it turned out, Gogel birdied 18 for a 69 and 274 total and Perez’striple-bogey 8 for a 76-277 made him a loser by three strokes.

Perez was confident a par at 18 would win. “But all that changed inabout 30 seconds,” he said. “I found my ball out of bounds, Gogelmade (the birdie putt) and the crowd went crazy. It was a long walkback to the tee.”

Gogel said he felt for Perez.“I’ve been there before myself,” he said. “As for the 18th, I think Pat

will learn from that. Was the driver the right play? He will ask himselfthat a thousand times.”

Woods was never a threat, finishing tied for 12th. Phil Mickelsonand defending champion Davis Love III missed the cut.

For the second year in a row, nary of drop of water fell on theevent. Except for one morning frost delay, good weather prevailed. The

184

lift, clean and place rule was in effect at Spyglass Hill and Poppy Hills,but competitors played the ball down four days at Pebble Beach.

Brian Claar teamed with amateur Randall Mays, a communicationsexecutive, to capture the pro-am division. Their 255 score was 33 underpar. Singer-songwriter Glenn Frey won the Jack Lemmon Award, givento the amateur who helped his pro the most. Frey aided Craig Stadler31 shots over 72 holes. Frey and Stadler finished only one stroke behindClaar and Mays.

LEADERS: First round–Brent Schwarzrock shot 8-under 64 at PebbleBeach to grab a two-stroke lead over Gogel and Perez. Secondround–Perez tacked on a 65 to go to 13-under 131 and lead Lee Janzen by four. Third round–Perezedged to 15 under at 201 with a 70. Janzen and Gogel were four back.

CUT: 72 players at even-par 216 from a field of 180. Twenty-five ama-teurs played Sunday. The pro-am cut was 198, 18 under par.

WEATHER: Forty-five minute frost delay on Thursday to start the day.It was sunny with temperatures around 55 on Thursday and 60s on theweekend.

2003FEBRUARY 6-9

It wasn’t the first time a freakish incident with a golf ball led theway to a victory in the Crosby/AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am,but Davis Love III will take it.

It was in 1984 that Hale Irwin, one shot behind the leader onSunday, hooked his drive at No. 18 into the ocean. Or so he thought.But the ball hit a rock and caromed back into play and Irwin went onto win in a playoff with Jim Nelford.

This time it was Love, clinging to a one-stroke lead in the finalround after 11 holes at Pebble Beach. At No. 12 he laced a 5-iron on thepar-3 hole, only to see it bounce off a Santa Rosa press photographer’sshoe. The ball could have kicked into the back rough and maybe led toa bogey or worse. But instead it ricocheted to four feet from the holeand Love calmly made birdie.

Love won by one stroke, so the benefit of that lucky shot wasobvious.

Love, who hadn’t won on the PGA Tour since his 2001 triumphat Pebble Beach (a span of 44 tournaments), still had work to do afterNo. 12. He bogeyed the 16th to fall into a tie with Tom Lehman, whohad birdied 17 while playing one hole ahead. Love scrambled for par at17, sinking a 7-foot putt when the ball paused at the lip and thendropped. “It fell over drunk into the hole,” said Love later.

Bursting with confidence that Love attributed to a new foundpositive attitude, Love smashed a drive and a 4-iron to the 18th greenand cruised in with a two-putt birdie. His four-under-par 68 for a 14-under 274 was just good enough to nip the luckless Lehman (67-275).

Lehman, who fired a 5-under 31 on the back nine, had a gold-en chance to birdie the 18th, but missed a five-footer.

“This tournament is about friendships and having fun andhaving a good attitude,” Love said. If a player worries “because it’sgoing to be wet, it’s going to be hard, it’s going to be windy and cold,you’ve got to play with amateurs, it’s going to take six hours, you havealready lost.”

Love had played sloppily early, but he put on a rally that waskeyed by birdies on the treacherous eighth, ninth and 10th holes. Heparred 11 and then came the fateful 12th.

“That was a real break at 12,” he said. “It seems like the betteryour attitude, the better bounces you get.”

“Unbelievable,” said Lehman when told of Love’s break at 12.The weather was sunny all week and for the first time since

1992 no lift-clean-and-place rule was in effect.In the pro-am division, the teams of Phil Tataurangi-Craig

Heatley and Brad Faxon-Thomas Ryan tied for first place at 257—31under par. As is the practice, they shared the top prize rather than

2004FEBRUARY 2-8

Vijay Singh’s habit of knocking on the door until the house falls downshowed up again in the 2004 AT&TPebble Beach National Pro-Am.When the 40-year-old Fijian arrived on the Monterey Peninsula, he

already had finished in the top 15 five times in this event, includingtwice as runnerup. The tournament had been his personal cash cow,with $1,031,675 in earnings. He knew the golf courses, he knew hisgame and his confidence was soaring.No wonder he fired four rounds in the 60s — only player to do so —

to walk off with a three-stroke victory. His 16-under-par 272 earnedhim another $954,000. Jeff Maggert wound up second at 275 and PhilMickelson third at 276.Singh, who recorded 25 birdies over his 72 holes, became only thethird foreign-born player to win the Crosby/AT&T. He was precededby Bruce Crampton (1965) and Brett Ogle (1993). More importantly, thevictory launched an amazing season in which he won nine times,banked almost $11 million on tour and claimed the No. 1 ranking in theworld from Tiger Woods.After 54 holes, it appeared the best player with a chance at beatingSingh was San Jose State product Arron Oberholser. Paired in the finalgroup Sunday, they were tied for the lead at 13-under 203. ButOberholser, ranked 188th in the world, found out quickly derailing theSingh Express was no easy task.Singh hooked his opening tee shot at Pebble Beach into deep roughand then saw his approach hop off a knob over the bunker to stop afew feet from the cup for an easy birdie. On No. 2 his approach missedthe green by 60 yards, but he pitched to 10 feet and sank that for anoth-er birdie. After missing the fairway at No. 3, he sent an iron shot to thegreen’s fringe and dropped a 10-footer for the third birdie. Oberholser, who routinely parred the first three holes, was in awe.“The man snap-hooked his first three drives,” said Oberholser, whoshot 76 to finish fourth. “I stripe my first three and make pars while hemakes birdies. I mean, okay, that’s a wake-up call. But it’s hard to com-pete with that.” Any chance of an Oberholser rally disappeared at the par-4 eighth. His201-yard 3-iron faded into the hazard below the green. He waited 20minutes for a ruling on whether he could take an unplayable lie. Thedecision went against him. His double-bogey six left him six shots backof Singh, who had laced a brilliant 4-iron to five feet and made birdie.“After that I just cruised along,” said Singh, who used his longbroom-handled putter throughout.Maggert tried to make a late run en route to his 69. But his chances

evaporated when he four-putted No. 16 for a double bogey.For the third straight year, the 72 holes were rain-free. But damp

conditions led Tour officials to allow players at Poppy Hills and

191

Spyglass Hill to clean their ball on the fairway. They played the balldown at Pebble Beach.In the pro-am division, amateur Robert Halmi Jr. struck it rich. He not

only teamed with pro Jerry Kelly to win the pro-am, but also the thirdannual Jack Lemmon Award. That went to the amateur who helps his prothe most over 72 holes.The Halmi-Kelly duo carded a 254—34 strokes under par. Singh and

amateur Ted Forstmann finished two shots back. Halmi, an 11-handicap-per from New York, helped Kelly 32 strokes in the Jack Lemmon compe-tition. He nipped David Shaffer, who helped pro Dennis Paulson 29strokes.LEADERS: First Round—Matt Kuchar (PH) and J.J. Henry (PB) tiedfor the lead with 65s. Second round—Luke Donald moved into the one-shot lead with a 7-under 65 (PB) for a 134 total. Tom Pernice Jr. (SH)was second at 68-135. Third round—Singh fired a 68 for a 203 (PB) toshare the lead with Oberholser, who logged a bogey-free round 67 (SH).Donald, Maggert and Phillip Price were three strokes back (206).CUT: Sixty-eight pros made the cut at 1-under-par (215). The pro-amcut was 196, with 25 teams advancing to Sunday play. WEATHER: Cool and dry, with highs in the 60s.

2005FEBRUARY 7-13

Phil Mickelson started his week on the Peninsula with an admirableacceptance speech at his induction into the California Golf Hall of Fameand finished it by having the last word—on and off the course—as cham-pion of the 2005 AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am.

“It’s been a fun week,” Mickelson said.It also was a record week for the San Diego Southpaw, whose 19-

under-par 269 was four shots better than fellow lefty Mike Weir, the run-ner-up from Canada.

Mickelson became the first wire-to-wire winner since the tournamentwas lengthened from 54 holes to 72 holes in 1958 (it was accomplishedfour times from 1947-57).

Mickelson matched the tournament record with a 10-under-par 62 inhis opening round at Spyglass Hill Golf Course (Tom Kite shot 62 at thePebble Beach Golf Links in 1983, as did David Duval in 1997, while MattGogel shot 62 at Poppy Hills Golf Course in 2001).

Mickelson’s 62 set the Spyglass Hill course record (two shots betterthat the previous record shared by Dan Forsman and David Berganio).

Mickelson set the tournament 36-hole record at 129, with his second-round 67 at Poppy Hills Golf Course (two shots better than the previousrecord of 131, set by Pat Perez in 2002).

Mickelson set the tournament 54-hole record at 196, with his third-round 67 at Pebble Beach (two shots better than the previous record of198, set by David Duval in 1997).

“I really don’t think about records.” Mickelson said. “I just reallywanted to win this tournament.”

He also tied his own tournament record as the only left-handed win-ner, but in 1998 Mickelson had to wait six months and 20 days to com-plete a tournament that was washed out by storms. Mickelson returnedin August of that year to play the third round – making the event official– shooting 67 for a 202 that was one shot better than Tom Pernice Jr.

“I think I like the four consecutive days of play better,” Mickelsonsaid. “Both wins feel terrific. It was fun to come back in ’98 and win.It’s even better to do it here in consecutive rounds.”

Although a final-round 73, 1-over-par at Pebble Beach, left him oneshot off the tournament record of 268 set by Mark O’Meara in 1997, itnonetheless was a solid finish, given that Weir’s 67 was the only sub-70round posted in a light rain, with some gusty wind. Besides, Mickelsonwas just elated that the victory came on the heels of a win the previousweek in FBR Open in Phoenix—an early-season streak that ignited a 2005season that saw Mickelson win four times, including his second careermajor at the PGA Championship. The AT&T Pro-Am check for $954,000also kept him on a path toward $5.7 million in PGA Tour earnings in 2005.

Mickelson, whose relationship with golf on the Peninsula dates backto his first trips north as a teenager for the California State Amateur, andincludes the NCAA Championships in 1991 at Poppy Hills, has become

194

one of the premier competitors in the AT&T Pro-Am, with the third-bestscoring record in the past 10 years, at 70.59 (behind Vijay Singh at 70.03and Davis Love III at 70.38)—not an easy task give the distractions of thehigh-profile celebrity event and the sometimes lengthy rounds.

“The first couple of times you come here, you don’t appreciate theindividuality of this tournament and how different and unique it is,”Mickelson said. “Sometimes you don’t appreciate all that the celebritiesbring to the table, how they bring people out, get them excited to be outin the event. Over time, you see what an asset it really is.”

Mickelson held a seven-shot lead through 54 holes, making Sunday’sround little more than a formality. On a day when the wind turnedaround, making the opening holes more difficult than the close holes,Weir was the only player in the top 10 who was able to break 70, andMickelson’s lead never slipped below four shots. Greg Owen, ofEngland, started Sunday second, but a 72 left him alone in third, withPaul Goydos and Tim Clark each shooting 71 to hold onto a share offourth, right where they started Sunday.

In the pro-am team competition, there would be no “Cinderella story,”at least not for gallery favorite Bill Murray, the actor of “Caddyshack”fame. Murray and longtime pro partner Scott Simpson were in the run-ning for the title, but their closing 67 gave them a 258 total, good forfourth, only the second time they have cracked the top 10 since teamingup in 1993.

The victory went to the consistently hot team of Barry McCollam andpro partner Joel Kribel, who shot 8-under-par 64 for 253 and a four-shotwin. McCollam, a 5-handicap from New Zealand who owns EmbarHoldings Ltd. (part of a multi-corporation conglomerate), and Kribelshot three straight 63s to go into the final round two shots up on theeventual second-place team of Bob Halloran, Director of Sports forMirage Sports, and pro Richard S. Johnson.

Halloran and Johnson finished with a 66 for 257, tied with DougKintzinger, the CEO of Jeld-Wen, and pro Jay Delsing, who closed with a 68.

McCollam earned the Jack Lemmon Award, which goes to the playerwho helps his team the most—in this case 27 strokes.

LEADERS: First Round–62 Phil Mickelson (SH), 65 Davis Love III(PH), Kevin Sutherland (PH), Charles Howell III (PB), Daniel Chopra(PB), Hunter Mahan (PB). Second Round–129 Mickelson (67 PH), 133Mike Weir (67 PB), 135 Paul Goydos (68 PB), Andrew Magee (68 SH),Sutherland (70 PB).

CUT: 64 pros made the cut at 4-under-par (212). The pro-am team cutwas 196, with 25 teams advancing to the fourth round. There were 10teams at 196 that were eliminated through the tiebreaker.

2006FEBRUARY 6-12

Two years after stumbling, Arron Oberholser walked tall and true ashe closed the deal on his first PGA Tour victory to the delight of hisfamily and friends from San Jose.

“Growing up, I always watched guys win the golf tournament andjust the walk up 18 at Pebble Beach is just unlike anything else,” saidOberholser, a former San Jose State standout who played numerousamateur events on the Monterey Peninsula. “Even when you wereplaying here by yourself or with a foursome, it's still an incrediblewalk. But to walk up knowing that you are the champion … I wisheverybody could feel that way. It's incredible.”

Oberholser, who values the history and tradition of the A&T Pro-Amso much that he calls it his personal “fifth major,” shot a final-round 72,even par, on the Pebble Beach Golf Links for a 271, 17-under-par. It wasenough for tournament record-tying five-shot cushion over runner-upRory Sabbatini, whose 70 gave him a 276. Mike Weir, who came intoSunday tied with Oberholser at 199, crashed early—with a double-bogey at the second hole and bogey on the third—and shot 78 to tie forthird at 277 with Jonathan Byrd.

The victory, which Oberholser locked up with a magical birdie out ofthe trees on the par-4 15th, was a distinctly different sequel to his finalround in 2004, when he went into the final round tied for the lead withVijay Singh. Then ranked 188th in the world, Oberholser tweaked hisback during warm-ups and then emotionally cracked under the pressureof facing one of the top players in the game, shooting 76 to finish fourth.

This time, with the best putting stroke in the tournament -- he wasNo. 1 in both putts per round (25.75) and putting average (1.522) --Oberholser sank birdies on the par-5 second and par-4 third holes for afive-shot lead over Weir. Not bad for someone who couldn’t read thePebble Beach greens as a kid, the first time he played in the NorthernCalifornia junior championships.

Despite some problems Sunday, Oberholser seemed destined toredeem himself from the 2004 finish when his errant drive on the 15thhit the cart path and then a small cypress tree—but bounced back intoan opening. He had room to knock a wedge to within 8 feet and nailedthe putt.

“I felt that as soon as that one went in I was like all right, let's gomake some golf swings,” Oberholser said. “I was struggling. But I wasable to piece it together, hit some good shots when I needed to, and getit done.”

Three closing pars fell perfectly in line with Oberholser’s tri-umphant march to the finish.

“I think that the maturity and the sense of peace are starting to comearound,” Oberholser said of handling the pressure. “I was determined tostay calm, to stay at peace with myself no matter what happened. And Iwas determined to have a good time and smile as much as I can.”

198

There was a lot of smiling and good times all week, as recordcrowds enjoyed a sixth straight year with no rain problems. Sunshinepushed temperatures into the high 70s as more than 155,000 fans over-all attended the four rounds of competition.

Celebrity amateur George Lopez, who has a home at Pebble Beach,had fun, too. The comic actor jumped into the gallery at the 15th teeand “crowd surfed,” creating the first mosh pit in tournament history.“I wish I could have caught a bigger wave,” Lopez quipped.

The biggest wave of enthusiasm followed Oberholser, who becameonly the fifth player to earn his first PGA Tour victory at Pebble Beach,joining John Cook (1981), Steve Jones (1988), Brett Ogle (1993) and MattGogel (2002). It was a family celebration Sunday, as Oberholser’sgallery included his mother, brother, closest friends and their wives, hisswing coach, “And all my high school buddies came out, which wasreally cool,” he noted.

They were there to see what they all had been waiting for, includingOberholser himself: his name on a Tour champion’s trophy.

“It was going to happen,” Oberholser said. “The fact that my firstone happened this week, at this tournament, is extremely special. I'mabsolutely thrilled that it happened here.”

Oberholser also was the fifth pro to sweep both the individual andteam titles, as he and amateur partner Michael McCallister, the presi-dent and CEO of Humana Inc., tied for first in the pro-am, at 255, 33-under-par. They shared the championship with pro Hunter Mahan andAlan Heuer, the COO of Mastercard International, who shot 66 in thefinal round, while Oberholser and McCallister shot 68.

Oberholser said he cost his team the title outright when he acciden-tally picked up McCallister’s mark on the fifth green, when it was inOberholser’s line. McCallister had a putt for par, with Oberholser madebogey.

Heuer wound up in another tie—for the Jack Lemmon Award,which goes to the player who helps his team the most. Heuer, TomRyan (paired with Brad Faxon) and Richard Stricklen (Shane Bertsch)all helped their pro 26 strokes. It was the first three-way tie for theaward in tournament history.

A little rain didn’t bother Phil Mickelson, who repeated his wire-to-wire victory performance of 2005 and matched two other tournamentrecords along the way.

Mickelson’s 20-under-par 268 total tied Mark O’Meara (1997) forlowest winning score for 72 holes, while his five-shot cushion ahead ofrunner-up Kevin Sutherland joined five others for the biggest winningmargin. Mickelson also joined Jack Nicklaus and Johnny Miller asthree-time champions, trailing only O’Meara, the all-time leader withfive.

Rain and records were not the only things that fell during the week.Thursday at Spyglass Hill, while Bill Murray’s foursome was on the17th green, a Monterey Pine estimated at 90 feet came crashing downfrom the nearby hillside, falling about two feet from a spectator. Noone was injured. Play was stopped momentarily as crews cleaneddebris from the back bunker.

By Sunday, the sun was shining and there was no need to worryabout rain delays.

“We had a little bit of breeze, but it wasn’t a difficult day,” saidMickelson, who reached the 30-win milestone for his PGA TOUR career– also winning the AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am in 1998 and2005. “It’s not a bad thing if the weather comes in. What was greatwas we didn’t have any delays during the week.” He knows that alltoo well, since his 1998 victory at Pebble Beach was rain-delayed inFebruary – and not completed until August.

Mickelson did not waste any time going to the front of the pack,opening with a 7-under-par 65 at Poppy Hills. He kept rolling to 12-under through 36 holes after his 67 at Pebble Beach, and then finishedhis three-course rotation with a 2-under-par 70 at Spyglass Hill, whereearlier in the week he worked on his putting with short-game coachDave Pelz.

“Certainly you are not going to make every putt out here,”Mickelson said, “but what I did do was start them on line with theright speed. And I was able to make my share.”

Indeed, Mickelson had the best short game in the tournament,ranked No. 1 in the combined Putts/Greens In Regulation category anddid not have a three-putt all week. But he also drove the ball well,missing only six of 42 fairways the final three rounds, and capitalizedon the par 5s, playing them 10-under par (17 total holes).

Going into the final round tied with Sutherland at 14-under,Mickelson dropped out of the lead only momentarily – when he lost aball at the par-3 fifth hole and took a double-bogey (his 6 iron from 202yards flew the green). However, birdies at Nos. 6, 8, 10 and 11 pushedhim well ahead of the pack, which did not keep pace with Mickelson,who breezed through the back side with a 32, capped with birdies onthe 17th and 18th holes for a 66, the low score of the day.

“This means a lot to me because it’s a place where I have familymemories,” said Mickelson, whose grandfather once caddied at PebbleBeach. “I love coming back to this place.”

Sutherland’s closing 71 was good for second place, one shot aheadof PGA TOUR rookie John Mallinger, who also shot 71 Sunday.

Mickelson also became the sixth player to win both the pro andteam events in the same year, teaming with amateur partner HarryYou, to win the pro-am. Their total of 249, 39-under-par, was four shotsahead of the father-son team of Tom Watson and Michael Watson, whofinished at 253, 35-under.

On Sunday, You, an 18-handicap, made a timely up-and-down savefrom under a tree at the par-3 fifth hole, where Mickelson took his double-bogey.

Michael Watson, 24, won the Jack Lemmon Award, given to theamateur who helps his pro the most strokes. Watson, a 6-handicapper,helped his dad by 28 shots in the team competition. He is the thirdgeneration of the Watson family crowned a winner at the tournament:His grandfather, Ray Watson, won the team pro-am in 1941 with proLeonard Dodson, while his father won the pro titles in 1977 and 1978.

All four rounds of the tournament were played under preferred lierules, allowing players to lift, clean and place the ball within one clublength on closely mown areas through the green.

This year’s Pro-Am was dedicated to the memory of John Zoller,vice chairman of the Monterey Peninsula Foundation, who passedaway the week before the tournament

Since he had not won in his previous 198 PGA TOUR starts, Steve Lowery did not come to the Monterey Peninsula with the sametype of expectations as, say, Vijay Singh, who won the AT&T PebbleBeach National Pro-Am in 2004 and had six top-10 finishes in hisprevious 10 visits.

Yet it was Lowery, without so much as a top-20 at Pebble Beach,who was holding the Waterford Crystal on the 18th green, where hesank a seven-foot birdie putt to beat Singh on the first playoff hole. Itwas the 47-year-old Lowery’s third PGA TOUR victory, but first sinceSeptember 2000.

“This is absolutely my most meaningful win,” said Lowery, whoclosed with a 4-under-par 68 for a 278 total, matching Singh, a third-round co-leader who closed with a 71. “After seven years, and winningon this course against Vijay, it is the most special.”

Off the tournament radar for most of the first three rounds, assomeone different led each day, Lowery lit up the screen late Saturdayand early Sunday to surge to the top of the leaderboard. After a pair ofdouble-bogeys on the par-5 10th and 12th holes at Poppy Hills in thethird round, Lowery then made 10 birdies in his next 15 holes. The hotstreak not only salvaged a solid 2-under-par 70 at Poppy Hills, itcaught everyone’s attention with a 5-under-par 31 on the front nine atPebble Beach.

The defining shot of Lowery’s rally was a 217-yard 4-iron from theleft fairway bunker on the par-4 ninth; while it more often leads to abogey, Lowery stuck it tight enough for a birdie. “I just hit it as goodas I can hit it,” Lowery said.

Singh needed a birdie on the final hole of regulation to force theplayoff, but then was not as successful out of the right fairway bunkeron the extra hole. Singh hit an 8-iron only 86 yards up the fairway, andthen stuck his third in the bunker fronting the green. He managed tosave par, but it was not enough.

“I let this one slip away,” said Singh, who was 12-under-par whenhe lost his grip on the lead with successive bogeys on the 14th through16th holes, leading to a 39 on the finishing nine. “I was in control, butthose (three bogeys) took a little air out of me.”

Still, through the 16th, Singh remained in a four-way tie for firstplace with Lowery, as well as Corey Pavin and John Mallinger, whofinished at 9-under. And after Lowery birdied the 17th, Singhanswered with a birdie on the 18th.

Lowery was not flustered about having to go extra holes, since hisprevious two wins also came in playoffs. “I knew I could not havegiven it any more for 18 holes,” he said. “I just felt like I didn’t haveanything to lose. I played solid all day, so I am proud of the way I won it.”

As is often the case, the tournament provided more than golf shotsto keep the gallery interested throughout the week. LPGA Tour

glamour girl Natalie Gulbis caddied for amateur Ted Forstmann in thefirst round, the same day that tennis legend Chris Evert flew in fromFlorida to watch fiancé Greg Norman play with his son Gregory.

Pro surfer Kelly Slater became the first player in tournamenthistory to make the cut and then ride the waves along the 18th fairwayfollowing the third round.

Comic-in-residence George Lopez kept busy each day. He wore avisor-wig combination Thursday to mimic pro partner Daniel Chopra’sspiked, bleached-blond hair (Chopra declared he would adopt thenickname “Chopez” the rest of the week.) On Friday, Lopez donned akilt, but wisely changed back to golf slacks Saturday, when he went“body-surfing” into the zany Club 15 gallery.

Defending champion Phil Mickelson was also entertaining, for thewrong reason: the 11 he carded Saturday on the par-5 14th hole atPebble Beach.

Mickelson cut the corner and from a decent lie in the rough, hittwo shots with his hybrid out of bounds. He used his 5-iron to get intothe fairway on his sixth shot, but wasn’t done. Mickelson spun his firstapproach off the sloping green, chipped his eighth shot halfway up thehill, chipped again to 15 feet and two-putted.
