adminOn the first day of the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am (total prize money of 9 million dollars) on the PGA Tour, Korean players only performed in the mid-lower ranks.
Ahn Byeong-hun (32, CJ Logistics) caught 1 eagle and 2 birdies in the first round of the tournament held at Monterey Peninsula CC (par 71, 6957 yards) in Pebble Beach, California, USA on the 3rd (Korean time), but missed 2 bogeys. He shot a 2-under-par 69 to rank in a tie for 47th place.
Ahn Byeong-hoon, who succeeded in re-entering the tour through the Korn Ferry Tour, has yet to win the tour. Even this season, there has been no ‘Top 10’ since the opening game, a tie for 4th at the Fortinet Championship in September last year. 스포츠토토
