It's never really felt like the start of the season for me either, typically because the field isn't usually as strong as it was for even the Buick Invitational a week or two before. I do enjoy it from time to time because of the setting more than anything, and I can more than tolerate Bill Murray. He's one of my favorites to begin with and to me his act at Pebble has never gotten stale, as you just never know what he's going to do. That's a lot more than can be said for 99% of the rest of the amateurs, especially those CBS sitcom stars who get more coverage of their round than Tiger usually does.
