TaylorMade Pebble Beach Invitational

Pebble Beach Pebble Beach, CA, United States

If you find the weather at Pebble Beach during the ATT Pro-Am too unpredictable and crowded, here you have an alternative. Not that the weather is more predictable but there are fewer people and you can follow the golfers along the fairways. The competition is good, because the $300,000 purse is worth the trip. http://pebblebeach.com
