AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am is second signature event of 2025. What's new this year?

The 2025 AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am welcomes a field of 80 this week along the shores of the Monterey Peninsula and there's big money on the line once again. The AT&T will be played on two courses: Pebble Beach Golf Links and Spyglass Hill.

The event is one of eight signature events on the 2025 schedule. Pebble became a signature event last season, and it will feature a total purse of $20 million and a $3.6 million first-place prize.

The Sentry was the first signature event in 2025 but new this year is that all the others, including Pebble, will have a minimum field size of 72 and, if they need to, tournaments can backfill using an alternate list from the Aon Next 10 standings. The AT&T also doled out four sponsor exemptions in 2025: Rickie Fowler, Keith Mitchell, Jordan Spieth and Gary Woodland.

Three signature events will have a cut in 2025

The Genesis Invitational, the Arnold Palmer Invitational and the Memorial Tournament will have a 36-hole cut to the top 50 and ties as well as anyone within 10 shots of the lead. Those three are known as the "player hosted" signature events, with Tiger Woods at the Genesis and Jack Nicklaus at the Memorial. Those three give a larger slice of the $20 million purses — 20 percent, or $4 million — to its champion.

Tiger Woods now gets an exemption to all signature events

Speaking of Tiger, another change to the signature events first announced last June at the Travelers is a special tribute to Woods: a sponsor exemption for lifetime achievement into all of them. It's a recognition of his 82 PGA Tour wins, including eight victories at the Arnold Palmer Invitational and five at the Memorial Tournament.

Tiger is not in the field of 80 at Pebble. He's not likely to play the WM Phoenix Open after that but all eyes are on Torrey Pines, where his Genesis event was moved for just this year as fallout from the devastating fires in the Los Angeles area and where he could make his 2025 season debut.

The 2024 AT&T was cut short to 54 holes after bad weather with high winds rolled through the area, making conditions unplayable.
