▪️ Three major winners will compete this week — J.J. Spaun (2025 U.S. Open), Wyndham Clark (2023 U.S. Open) and Francesco Molinari (2018 Open Championship). Luke Donald, captain for the victorious European Ryder Cup team in 2023 and 2025, will also compete.
▪️ Collectively, the 120-player field has 94 career victories on the PGA Tour. Matt Kuchar and Brandt Snedeker lead the group with nine career titles, respectively.
