WM Phoenix Open field loaded; Monday qualifier features pair in FedExCup top 30
The field for the PGA Tour’s first full-field designated event of the year is nearly set.
World No. 1 Rory McIlroy headlines the list of 133 players committed to play in next week’s WM Phoenix Open at TPC Scottsdale, where $3.6 million of a $20 million purse will go to the winner on Super Bowl Sunday. McIlroy, who last Sunday won the DP World Tour’s Dubai Desert Classic, will be making his first PGA Tour start since winning last fall’s CJ Cup, and he will be joined by eight of the top 10 players in the world rankings, including No. 2 Scottie Scheffler and No. 3 Jon Rahm, who has already won twice this year on the PGA Tour.
