Tafoni adjacent to a crack, Pebble Beach, San Mateo County, California

Which formed first, the crack or the tafoni? I imagine that the crack formed first because otherwise the crack would follow the zone of weakness present in the holes of tafoni. However, that inference implies that the tafoni then developed near, but not along, the crack.
