The 2024 AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am ended in quite a disaster, and Pablo Larrazabal did not wait long to take a jab at the PGA Tour. Due to heavy rains and strong gusts, the soggy greens did not allow golfers to start the final day of the tournament, thus reducing it to just 54 holes.

Being the second signature event of the tournament, it was a big blow to the PGA Tour when they could not hold the last round of the event. Ultimately, the leaderboard at the end of the third day was announced to be the final leaderboard.

Pablo Larrazabal tweeted about the event soon after, comparing the PGA Tour to the 54-hole LIV Golf format. Currently playing on the DP World Tour, Larrazabal said:

"At least the @DPWorldTour is the only major tour that plays 72 hole tournaments… but 90% cheaper…"

The AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am has always faced issues with the weather, with the tournament finishing a day late last year. This year however, the weather conditions did not show any signs of improvement even on Monday (February 5), forcing the PGA Tour to cut the event short.
