The second signature event on the 2024 PGA Tour calendar sure has been scintillating so far. It would have been especially so for the fans watching the event, especially Wyndham Clark, live in person. But, shockingly, it seems their joys were meant to be short-lived, all thanks to the weather at the course. Following the same, the Chief Referee of the men’s circuit announced the game plan to the community a while back.

A post was shared on X by Adam Schupak, a senior writer at Golfweek, pointing out how the referee is “hopeful” for a probable final day of the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am. However, while doing so, he also revealed how, if the final round were to take place, it would be done so in the absence of the fans!

The tweet divulges how, although Gary Young is “hopeful” of paying 72 holes to determine a winner at the Pebble Beach Golf Links, it would be especially “difficult” to see it happen. The reason? None other than the “sustained winds of 35-40 mph and gusts of 60+ as well as rain in the forecast.”

Surprisingly, that’s not all! The final round of the second signature event of the PGA Tour calendar would also not allow any spectators on Sunday “if they play.” Nothing short of misery for fans. Well, that naturally raises the question. What would happen if the final day of play did not take place on the fourth day owing to the extreme weather conditions?

Reports indicate that the situation, including the course and its condition, would be assessed as early as 5 a.m. PST on Sunday, while the golfers would be informed about the same in the next 15 minutes. However, if the expected high winds and 2-3″ of rain delay the play, then the next update would come at 9:30 AM PST, following which the round would only begin after noon PST. But, on the off chance that the final day extends to Monday, then the round must start by 10:15 local time. If even that does not take place, then the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am would conclude at 54 holes.

Even before the start of the Sunday round, there were reports which indicated extreme weather conditions. Meteorologist Michael Anand predicted a storm, including a “mix of sun and clouds, a shower possible here or there,” along with “rainfall to the amount of 1-2 inches possible” during the same. Adding on, he also predicted how there would be sustained winds at 30–40 miles per hour, “with gusts of up to 70 miles per hour possible.”
