*All odds from Bet365 (check our Bet365 Review) AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-AmFebruary 1 – 4, 2024 at Pebble Beach Is This Week a Good Opportunity to Take on The Favorites?We believe this week is a perfect opportunity to take on the betting favorites at the top of the market because Rory McIlroy and Scottie Scheffler have not previously played here before the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-am became a signature event for 2024. Viktor Hovland, the third quoted player in the betting did win the Amateur Championship here in 2019 and this place has a rich history of multiple champions and course specialists to take on the favorites with. Weather Forecast and New FormatThere is also an unsettled weather forecast for the Monterey Peninsula from Thursday with rain on all four days, and the strongest winds forecast for Friday. With this being a signature event on the PGA Tour the format has changed with the opening two rounds at Pebble Beach and Spyglass Hills, and the weekend’s golf exclusively at Pebble Beach. Both tracks have some of the smallest Poa Annua greens on the PGA Tour so requires accuracy tee-to-green. Does the PGA Tour Need Jordan Spieth to Get Back to Winning Ways?Yes, we suggest that the PGA Tour, and particularly Jay Monahan need Jordan Spieth to get back to winning ways and the top of the sport. There is little doubt, that LIV is starting to pressurize Jay Monahan into a deal and his position in charge has been getting weaker by the day. The Pebble Beach Pro-am is the perfect event and track for the thirty-year-old Spieth from Dallas in Texas to get back in the winner’s circle. The 2017 champion has been a mainstay of the top of the leaderboard on the Monterey Peninsula for a decade now with his razor-sharp short game and creative play the perfect mix for success. Spieth started the year off in very sharp fashion at the Sentry in Hawaii. The problem was, as often in recent years, that Spieth flattered to deceive when it comes to winning events as easily as he did at his brilliant best a few years ago. That said, he has found a strong level of consistency currently in his game with a strike rate of 30% for top 10 finishes over the last year. The best price available about Jordan Spieth winning the Pebble Beach Pro-am at the top sportsbooks is +2000 with Bet365. Golf Pick: Jordan Spieth to Win Outright (+2000) at Bet365 Golf Pick: Jordan Spieth to Finish Top 10 (+188) at Bet365 Pebble Beach Pro-Am ChampionsMultiple winners of the Pebble Beach Pro-am has been a trend over the years with the recent examples of Phil Mickelson on five occasions, and Dustin Johnson and Brandt Snedeker both winning twice. The years before that, Mark O’Meara won on five occasions like Mickelson while Davis Love and Johnny Miller both won on several occasions; indeed, Miller came out of retirement at forty-six to win the event at (+50000) thirty years ago this week. Will Nick Taylor Win a Second Pebble Beach Pro-Am?The Canadian, Nick Taylor quietly goes about his business on the PGA Tour and last year’s home Canadian Open title further illustrated the growing belief within the thirty-five-year-old’s game. Early in 2023, you could see Taylor growing in confidence as he contended prominently for the Phoenix Open, one of the first elevated events on the PGA Tour. That may be all the encouragement we need to step in and back the Winnipeg guy, but when you consider he is a former winner of this event and the record here for multiple winners, that encouragement grows. Then throw in how well Taylor played at the Sony Open, I believe we have grounds to support the Canadian this week at Pebble Beach. The best price for Nick Taylor at this week’s Pebble Beach Pro-am is +7500 with Bet365, so let’s take that outright with a bet on the top 20 finish. Golf Pick: Nick Taylor to Win Outright (+7500) at Bet365 Golf Pick: Nick Taylor to Finish Top 20 (+220) at Bet365 *The line and/or odds referenced in this article might have changed since the content was published.
