The tournament has announced that it’s the strongest field ever.
It starts with world No. 1 and Masters champion Scottie Scheffler, reigning Open Championship winner and No. 4 Collin Morikawa, reigning PGA Championship winner and No. 5 Justin Thomas, and reigning U.S. Open champion and No. 10 Matt Fitzpatrick.
Also in the field: No. 2 and 2021 U.S. Open champion Jon Rahm, Players Championship winner No. 6 Cameron Smith, 2021 FedEx Cup champion and No. 7 Patrick Cantlay.
But wait, there’s more: No. 8 Viktor Hovland, No. 9 Sam Burns, No. 11 Xander Schauffele, No. 12 and three-time major winner Jordan Spieth, No. 13 Will Zalatoris — who actually leads the DP World Tour Ranking due to his runner-up finishes in the past two majors — and 2021 Masters champion Hideki Matsuyama.
The PGA Tour backs up the claim, reporting that “by field strength, the 2022 Genesis Scottish Open is set to be the strongest non-major in DP World Tour history.”
Game on.
