Subject: Pebble Beach -- made cut but no 4th round?
At Pebble Beach this past weekend, there were 15 players who made the
cut but didn't play the 4th round. Why did that happen? I couldn't
find any news coverage that explained it.

You sure it's not because those pros and their amateur partners made
the pro/am cut, but the pro himself didn't make the main tourney cut?

With the amateurs playing on Sunday, the field would be too big, so the low
pros don't play and tie for last place.

My paper showed "Made cut, but did not finish."

Four players at "E" received $11,825
Eleven players "plus 1" received $11,000

The fact that so many tied would lead you to believe that
in spite of the "did not finish" quote, they never started
the final round.
