13 Feb
Summary
- Ryo Hisatsune fired a bogey-free 62 to lead the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am.
- Hisatsune's 10-under round is his lowest career score on the PGA Tour.
- Scottie Scheffler trails by 10 strokes after an uncharacteristic opening round.
Ryo Hisatsune seized the early lead at the 2026 AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am with a stunning bogey-free 10-under 62 on Thursday. This remarkable performance marks Hisatsune's lowest career round on the PGA Tour and occurs in his first appearance at Pebble Beach. The young talent from Japan navigated the course masterfully, sinking putts from over 150 feet and even chipping in for a birdie on the 16th hole to build momentum.
Hisatsune's exceptional play places him one stroke ahead of American Sam Burns and Keegan Bradley, who both shot 63. Burns highlighted his putting prowess, gaining over five strokes on the greens. The tournament saw favorable conditions, with Pebble Beach playing nearly four strokes under par. However, world No. 1 Scottie Scheffler faced challenges, finishing the round 10 strokes off the pace with a 72, mirroring his deficit from the previous week's WM Phoenix Open.
On Spyglass Hill, Keegan Bradley posted an impressive 9-under performance. Jordan Spieth also showed promising form with a bogey-free 66. Last year's champion, Rory McIlroy, encountered putting difficulties and double bogeys, resulting in an opening 68. Scheffler's struggles extended beyond putting, with uncharacteristic iron play causing him to lose strokes on approach shots.
