After four weeks of fields in the PGA Tour’s “FedEx Cup Fall” which have been a bit devoid of stars, a number of household names will tee it up in Japan.
Major champions Xander Schauffele (No. 2 in the world), Collin Morikawa (No. 4) and Hideki Matsuyama headline the Zozo Championship, a limited-field event at Accordia Golf Narashino Country Club outside Tokyo. Morikawa is the defending champion.
Sahith Theegala, Sungjae Im and Max Homa are also top-30 players in the field, which also includes eight players atop the current Japan Tour Order of Merit.
The Zozo Championship began in 2019 as the Tour’s first sanctioned event in Japan, and Tiger Woods won that year for his 82nd career win, tying Sam Snead for the most all-time.
Morikawa won last year by six shots at 15 under on the 7,079-yard par-70 course.
