The final round of the 2024 AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am was canceled on Sunday night due to bad weather. The round was initially postponed until Monday. The organizers cited safety concerns as the reason for the cancellation. As a result, the tournament results have been finalized based on the scores of the first 54 holes.
The Pebble Beach area is currently under a Shelter in Place order by Monterey County until early Monday. After consulting with county emergency authorities, the PGA Tour decided to cancel the final round in a statement released on Sunday night.

The tournament was shortened to 54 holes due to poor weather conditions. As a result, Wyndham Clark, who was six shots behind the lead at the start of the third round, shot a 60 on Saturday to take the lead by one shot over Ludvig Aberg, securing his third PGA Tour title.
Wyndham Clark won $3.6 million for his performance at the 2024 AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am, where the purse was $20 million.
Throughout the week, the tournament was affected by heavy rain, which caused the course to be closed to the public during Wednesday’s practice round, and the entire tournament was played under preferred lies. The situation worsened on Saturday night and Sunday with strong winds, some gusting over 60 mph, causing significant damage to the course. Todd Lewis of Golf Channel reported that falling trees, camera towers, and hospitality tents resulted in extensive damage.
The main road to Pebble Beach, 17 Mile Drive, remained closed due to high winds on Sunday night. This was the first 54-hole event on the PGA Tour since the 2016 Zurich Classic of New Orleans. The Pebble event has been shortened six times since 1974, with the last time being in 2009 when Dustin Johnson won.
Many players had to play the third round with the knowledge that it could potentially be the final round, as they were aware of the forecast.
