As of the 30th, the Korean male golfer with the highest world ranking is Kim Joo-hyung (13th). Next are Lim Seong-jae (29th) and An Byeong-hun (43rd). However, if you look at the performance this season, the ace is definitely An Byeong-hoon. Byung-Hoon An has ranked in the top five in two consecutive tournaments since the opening round of the PGA Tour season. He placed 4th in ‘The Sentry’, the season opening competition that ended on the 8th, and tied for second place in ‘Sony Open’ on the 15th, his second competition. He is ranked 3rd in the FedEx Cup points rankings, which reflect season performance, the highest among Korean players. Two of the four winners of this season's PGA Tour tournaments are also behind An Byeong-Hoon in rankings.

Byeong-Hoon An will participate in the 'AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am', the fifth tournament of the PGA Tour season, held at Pebble Beach Golf Links (par 72) in California, USA for four days starting February 2nd. This is the 183rd PGA Tour tournament. Byung-Hoon An, who debuted on the PGA Tour in 2016, has yet to lift a championship trophy. He finished runner-up five times this season, including the Sony Open. He placed in the top five 13 times, including three times in third place, but always fell a little short of reaching the top.

Byung-Hoon An has been in the top 5 in two consecutive competitions since the season opened and is attempting to win his first championship since his debut. The third event of the season, ‘American Express,’ and the fourth event, ‘Farmers Insurance Open,’ were skipped. It was to focus on this competition.

Byeong-Hoon An ranked 22nd in drive efficiency index last season, but is ranked 1st this season. This means that long hitter An Byeong-hoon's drive shots are now more accurate. His putting, which was considered relatively weak compared to his iron shots, has also improved significantly. He ranks 10th with a putt average of 1.69. He was 22nd last season with an average of 1.73. His stroke average is 69.1, which ranks him 7th among all PGA Tour players. His average birdies per round is also ranked 5th with 6.13.

The AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am will be upgraded to a special event starting this year. Accordingly, the total prize money increased to $20 million (approximately 26.6 billion won), more than double last year's amount. Last year's total prize money was $9 million. 80 people will participate in this competition, about half of last year's number, and the match will be played without a cutoff. The winning prize is $3.6 million (about 4.8 billion won).

As it is a special competition, many top rankers will participate. Nine of the world's top 10 men's golf players will participate and compete for the championship. World No. 3 Jon Lam (Spain), who moved to LIV Golf, which was supported by Saudi Arabian capital, will not participate. Nick Dunlap (USA), who became the first amateur player in 33 years to reach the top of the PGA Tour at the American Express, which ended on the 22nd, will make his professional debut through this tournament. A total of five Korean players will participate, including Kim Joo-hyung, Lim Seong-jae, Kim Si-woo, and Kim Seong-hyeon. The PGA Tour office announced on the 30th the power ranking predicting the winner of this tournament and placed Rory McIlroy (Northern Ireland) in first place. World No. 1 Scotty Scheffler (USA) will be competing for the first time since his professional debut. 토토사이트 순위
