Seamus Power will be looking to make history by becoming the first Irish golfer to win the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am.
 
The 35-year-old is currently placed 28th on the Official World Golf Rankings having won two tournaments which are part of the PGA Tour. 
 
Power won his first PGA Tour event at the Barbasol Championship in July last year as he won the event on the sixth extra hole of a playoff.

Therefore, the Touraneena-born player became the fifth player from the Republic of Ireland to win a PGA Tour event after Pat Doyle, Peter O'Hara, Pádraig Harrington and Shane Lowry.
 
The year 2022 was Power's best as a professional golfer having made his third straight major cut, after finishing tied for 12th at the 2022 US Open.
 
The Las Vegas-based sportsman won his second PGA Tour event at the Butterfield Bermuda Championship as he shot three rounds of 65 en route to a one shot victory over Thomas Detry in October.
 
Power took part at the recent 2023 Abu Dhabi Golf Championship in the United Arab Emirates two weeks ago and he finished 20th in the tournament.
 
“I’m absolutely over the moon. The first one was amazing but to be able to win again, it’s fantastic," Power said after winning the Butterfield Bermuda Championship.
 
"I get whatever, it’s pretty much a three-year exemption and all the kinds of cool things that come with it. It’s just you’re kind of so proud and it’s amazing to be able to do it again.
 
“So I was able to make a couple birdies on the front and then kind of hang on there coming back in.”
 
Mark O'Meara and Phil Mickelson are the most decorated golfers in the history of the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am with five titles each.
