At the 1950 Bing Crosby National Pro-Am—now AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am—the scheduled 54-hole tournament, using a Friday-to-Sunday format, ended with Burke, Dave Douglas, Smiley Quick and Sam Snead deadlocked, at 2-under 214. With not enough daylight to conduct a sudden-death playoff and players scheduled to travel down the California coast, to Long Beach, the next day for the Long Beach Open, tournament officials declared four champions, each player receiving an official-victory designation. It remains the only time in PGA TOUR history that a tournament has declared four champions.
