The PURE Insurance Championship is back at Pebble Beach for an 18th year. It’s a very unique tournament as participants from First Tee chapters around the country are selected and are paired with a PGA TOUR Champions player for the week.
The juniors compete in a separate competition and there is also a pro/junior competition. Both pros and juniors play a rotation of Pebble Beach Golf Resort and Spyglass Hill Golf Course (new this year). Jim Furyk won in 2020, but won’t defend due to his obligations as an assistant to Steve Stricker at the Ryder Cup this week. Kirk Triplett, a California native, has been most successful over the years at the PURE Insurance Championship. He won recently in 2019 and also won in 2012 and 2013. Jerry Kelly, who ranks second on the Schwab Cup standings with three regular season events remaining, was in a playoff last year with Jim Furyk and fell short.
