The gusts roaring across the Monterey Peninsula have already produced some memorable highlights at the site of this week’s AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am.

July 16th, 2025

There’s a right and wrong way to try to hit the ball low. Scottie Scheffler’s coach explains

Hitting the ball low is a skill all golfers need to excel in the wind, as a lower-flighted shot is less impacted by the wind. The issue is many players try to hit the ball low the wrong way.
