The 2026 AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am kicks off as the first PGA Signature Event of the season at Pebble Beach Golf Links in California. World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler enters as the +300 favorite, with Rory McIlroy at +1400 making his season debut. Betting models highlight strong contenders like Si Woo Kim based on recent form and course history.
The iconic Pebble Beach Golf Links hosts the 2026 AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am from February 2026, drawing top PGA Tour talent for this Signature Event. Defending champion Rory McIlroy, who won in 2025, returns after skipping the season's opening four tournaments. He sits second in the odds at +1400 behind Scottie Scheffler at +300, according to FanDuel Sportsbook.
Other notable entrants include Tommy Fleetwood at +2200, alongside Si Woo Kim, Xander Schauffele, and Justin Rose all at +2500. Recent playoff participants from the WM Phoenix Open, Hideki Matsuyama and Chris Gotterup, are listed at +3000. SportsLine's simulation model, which has accurately predicted 16 majors including the 2025 Masters, PGA Championship, and Open Championship, ran 10,000 iterations of the tournament.
The model advises fading Gotterup, who has won two of his three starts this year including the WM Phoenix Open, predicting he won't crack the top 10 despite his +3000 odds and lack of prior experience at Pebble Beach. Conversely, it backs Si Woo Kim strongly; he has finished no worse than T11 in his four events this season, with T6 or better in his last three, including T3 at the WM Phoenix Open and T2 at the Farmers Insurance Open. Kim also posted top-15 finishes in the last two Pebble Beach Pro-Ams.
Additional model picks target four longshots at +3000 or longer for top-10 contention, including a +5000 sleeper. Recent form leaders like Pierceson Coody (T13 Sony Open, T2 Farmers, T10 WM Phoenix) and Ryan Gerard (2nd Sony, T2 American Express, T11 Farmers) add depth to the field. Course history favors players such as Patrick Cantlay, Jason Day, and Scheffler, who have multiple top-15s here in the past five years. Course fits emphasize tee-to-green play (66%) and putting (34%), suiting golfers like Matt Fitzpatrick and Sahith Theegala.
As the event unfolds, bettors and DFS players can leverage these insights for informed decisions.
