is there a cut at pebble beach

Yes, there is a “cut” concept at Pebble Beach, but it depends on what you mean and which event/year you’re talking about.

Quick Scoop

  • For the 2026 AT &T Pebble Beach Pro-Am, there is no cut for the professionals – all 80 pros play all four rounds over the weekend.
  • The amateurs do “get cut” in practice: they stop playing after two rounds, so Friday is their last day even though the pros continue.
  • Pebble Beach has historically used different cut rules in different years, including a 54‑hole cut to low 60 and ties in older formats.

How the cut works (recent years)

  • As of the mid‑2020s, the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro‑Am became one of the PGA Tour’s Signature Events , which means:
    • No cut for the pros, smaller field (around 80 players), everyone plays four rounds.
* Amateurs participate only in the early part of the week, then drop out after Friday, creating a “soft” amateur cut.

How it used to work

In past formats, Pebble Beach operated more like a traditional multiple‑course pro‑am:

  • There was a 54‑hole cut rather than the standard 36‑hole cut.
  • After three rounds, the low 60 pros and ties advanced to the final round, with those between about 61st–70th getting money and FedEx Cup points but not playing Sunday.

If you’re just a regular golfer

If you’re asking as a visitor, not about the PGA Tour event:

  • Pebble Beach Golf Links is a public resort course , not a private members‑only club.
  • There is no “cut” for regular guests – if you have a tee time and pay the fee, you play your round; the cut only applies in tournament contexts.

TL;DR:

  • PGA Tour pros at Pebble in 2026: no cut, all four rounds.
  • Amateurs: effectively cut after two rounds.
  • Older versions of the event did have a formal 54‑hole cut for pros.
