If you’re a California native or you’d like to escape to somewhere slightly warmer this winter, you might want to consider a ticket to either of these top-class PGA Tour competitions, which serve as “signature events” on the calendar. As signature events, both offer the winner a share of an astonishing $20 million prize purse, as well as 700 points in the season-long FedEx Cup race. What does this mean? That the tournaments will attract the world’s biggest and best players to take part, so you’ll get to see many of your favourite golfing stars in action.
The AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am runs from 30 January – 2 February 2025 at Pebble Beach Golf Links and Spyglass Hill Golf Course. Founded in 1937 as the Bing Crosby Pro-Am, this tournament has been a beloved fixture on the PGA Tour calendar for many years. Golf-loving celebrities frequently competed as amateurs alongside the pros; Tom Brady, Bill Murray, and Justin Timberlake are just a few of the stars who’ve competed over the years. While the celebrity competition came to an end in 2023, the new streamlined edition of the event focuses on delivering elite golf for fans watching in person and at home. If you’d like to be among the former group witnessing it firsthand, adult tickets start at USD $90. For more information on this event, click here.
Meanwhile, the Genesis Invitational is even more historic, having started life as the Los Angeles Open in 1926. Held at Riviera Country Club in Los Angeles from 13-16 February, this tournament is hosted by Tiger Woods, who made his amateur debut at Riviera aged 16. Adult tickets start at $130, and there are several premium options for those seeking clubhouse access or all-inclusive hospitality.
