Daniel Berger Eagles Final Hole Of Pebble Beach National Pro-Am Blessedly Minus The Pro-Am

How nice was it not to hear the words, “and there’s Larry The Cable Guy”?
Or, Ray Romano has come into view of our cameras.
Don’t get me wrong, I support the Pebble Beach pro-am concept and know that it brings in new fans to golf when certain entertainers or athletes are involved. But gosh it was fun to see Pebble Beach played an hour faster and unencumbered by former A-listers and briefcases.
Add in CBS presenting a zippier show than in the past filled with those stunning drone and blimp shots…
This was fun too:
A special shout-out must go to the PGA Tour staff using a fun mix of tees to liven-up the setup. From a 139-yarder at the 5th to Sunday’s shorter 10th tee, the switch-up from normal pro-am years was welcomed. And no change was more exciting than seeing players going for the 18th in two. The day culminated with this stunning final hole eagle by 2021 winner Daniel Berger (Steve DiMeglio’s Golfweek game story here):
The tenth tee setup Sunday got some nice graphics and social media support. Always great when course setup is highlighted…
And the PGA Tour photography team produced some beauties, including this:
