A host of Major winners, other top Tour players and celebrities are taking part in the 25th Alfred Dunhill Links Championship pro-am.

Two debutants top the leaderboard after round one - Scotland's Michael Stewart and Australia’s Jack Buchanan.

Thirty-six-year-old Stewart, who is playing in only his sixth DP World Tour event, is ranked 979th in the world. He spent Monday to Wednesday this week in Edinburgh playing in the Tartan Tour's Duddingston Classic, where he finished runner-up. He carded a seven under par 65 at Carnoustie with five birdies and an eagle.

Buchanan, in his 16th DP World event and ranked 788th in the world, shot his 65 at Kingsbarns.

Stewart heads to Kingsbarns and Buchanan to St Andrews today. They do so a shot ahead of Casey Jarvis and MJ Dauffue, two of the seven South Africans in the top 11 on the leaderboard. Dauffue, with his partner Paul Harris, a former CEO of FirstRand Bank, leads the pro-am.

Matt Fitzpatrick has done the best so far of the pre-tournament favourites, and lies in a 12-way for 12th. Defending champion Robert MacIntyre is tied 78th.

Tom Vaillant has had a rapid rise up the professional ranks since leaving the amateur game in 2022.

Here are 10 things to know about the French player.

Tom Vaillant Facts

1. Tom Vaillant was born on December 14th 2001 in Cannes, France.

2. He had a successful amateur career, including victory at the 2019 European Boys’ Team Championship. In 2020, he had a brief stint with Arkansas State University.

3. Vaillant began playing on the Alps Tour as an amateur in 2021. The next year, he won twice on the circuit before turning professional.

4. He earned his Challenge Tour card for the 2023 season and tied for third in his first start, at the Nelson Mandela Bay Championship.

5. Vaillant spent just one season on the Challenge Tour, but he needed a big week in the season closer to secure his DP World Tour card. Requiring at least a finish of third at the Challenge Tour Grand Final, he placed runner-up at the Challenge Tour Grand Final to earn his card.

6. His coach is pro Jean-Francois Lucquin, who beat Rory McIlroy in a playoff at the 2008 European Masters.

7. In 2023, he won his first tournament as a professional, the French Tour’s Championnat de France Professionnel.

8. He also likes soccer, basketball and racket sport padel.

9. Vaillant is also a keen player of numbers-based card game SkyJo.

10. With one round to play of the 2026 Open de France at Le Golf National, Vaillant was second behind Matt Fitzpatrick in pursuit of his maiden DP World Tour title.

It's been quite the year for Walker Cup star Josh Hill - and it could be about to get even better.

Just a few weeks after calmly slotting home the winning putt for Great Britain & Ireland and becoming one of the 'Legends of Lahinch', the young Englishman has announced he has turned professional.

It means he'll tee it up on the DP World Tour next week at the Alfred Dunhill Links Championship for the first time as a pro.

Sharing the news on Instagram, the former University of Tennessee representative said a "new chapter begins" at the Home of Golf, where a "lifelong dream becomes reality".

Hill's final putt on the 18th hole sealed an incredible victory for GB&I and completed the biggest comeback in Walker Cup history, with the Englishman showing he has the bottle to compete with the best following his up-and-down from a greenside bunker on the final hole.

It's a clutch moment that will serve him well as he steps up onto the professional circuit.

At the age of 15, Hill, who grew up in Dubai, garnered international recognition by winning the 2019 Al Ain Open on the MENA Tour, becoming the youngest player ever to win a professional tournament that awarded Official World Golf Ranking points.

Hill, who also represented GB&I in the Jacques Leglise Trophy, finished his four-year Tennessee career with seven top-ten and 18 top-25 finishes.

"I'm incredibly grateful to everyone who has supported me throughout my journey, from my family and coaches to England Golf, the Emirates Golf Federation, Titleist, Captain Dean Robertson, the University of Tennessee and Coach Webb," he added.

"And to my parents, thank you for the endless support and sacrifice. None of this would be possible without you."

Tommy Fleetwood will take no further part in this week's French Open after withdrawing before the start of the third round on Saturday morning.

The Englishman was well placed at six-under-par through two rounds, with a 69 and 67 leaving him seven shots off the pace at Le Golf National.

However, the former champion, who won the Open de France in 2017, withdrew before the start of the third round due to illness.

The World No. 9 was due to tee off at 11.23am local time alongside Sam Bairstow and Joe Dean, with all three men six-under.

Fleetwood was in a confident mood ahead of this week's DP World Tour visit to France, with Le Golf National a happy hunting ground for the Ryder Cup star.

In addition to winning the French Open on the outskirts of Paris in 2017, Fleetwood won a silver medal at the iconic venue at the 2024 Olympic Games.

In between, he made his Ryder Cup debut at Le Golf National, winning all four matches alongside Francesco Molinari.

“I have some incredibly special memories playing in France, and Le Golf National is a course I hold really close to my heart,” Fleetwood told the DP World Tour on the eve of this week's tournament.

“The FedEx Open de France is one of the world’s oldest national opens, and it’s always a privilege to tee it up in an event with such history.

“I look forward to getting back in front of the French fans and hopefully making it another week to remember.”

It might be a disappointing end to the week, but it won't take the shine off what has been an incredible 12 months for the Southport man.

After winning the Tour Championship last August, which secured him the FedEx Cup title, he enjoyed Ryder Cup success for the third time.

The eight-time DP World Tour winner, who finished in a tie for fourth at this year's Open Championship, is scheduled to play in next week's Alfred Dunhill Links Championship at St Andrews.

The International side needs to find just five points out of the 12 available in the Sunday singles matches to end their run of 10 consecutive Presidents Cup defeats. If they can, it would be only the Internationals’ second win in the event's history and the first away from home.

It is the first time on foreign soil, and only the fourth time ever, that the International Team has held the lead going into the singles of the Presidents Cup.

But only once before have they turned a lead at the start of the singles session into a Cup-winning performance – in 1998, when they led going into the singles by a massive 9 points. In 2003, the USA side clawed back a three-point deficit to tie the match and retain the cup. In 2019, USA overturned a two-point deficit to win the match 16-14.

The scale of the Internationals’ task is still huge. In every match today bar one, the USA player outguns their opponent in the Official World Golf Rankings, sometimes massively so.

For example the first match out is third-ranked Cam Young against 67th-ranked Ryo Hisatsune.

World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler, who lost his singles matches in his previous two appearances, is fourth out and against 61st-ranked Nico Echavarria.

Seven of the world’s top 10 ranked golfers are playing, headed by World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler, all of them on the US side.

In contrast, the highest-ranked players for the International team are 14th-ranked Si Woo Kim and 22nd-ranked Ryan Fox. New Zealander Fox, 39, and this year’s Open champion, is making his Cup debut, as is 38-year-old Canadian Nick Taylor.

Adam Scott is playing in his 12th Presidents Cup, which draws him level with Phil Mickelson for the most appearances.

Team USA has won 13 of the 15 Cups held and tied another. In seeking an 11th successive victory, the US team is looking to maintain its record of winning every home Presidents Cup.

Each side comprises six qualifiers and six captain’s picks. For the US side, qualification was based on weighted FedExCup points since January 2025. For the International side, automatic qualification was based on the Official World Golf Ranking.

Manuel Elvira is the second player from his family to begin making his name on the DP World Tour. Find out more with these 10 facts.

Manuel Elvira Facts

1. Manuel Elvira was born on May 14th 1996 in Santander, Spain.

2. He played for Spain at the 2016 Eisenhower Trophy and three editions of the European Amateur Team Championship.

3. He played college golf at the University of Central Florida.

4. Elvira turned pro in 2018, initially playing on the Alps Tour and the Challenge Tour.

5. His first professional start came at the 2019 Ein Bay Open, where he finished runner-up.

6. Three more runner-up finishes arrived in 2023 on the Challenge Tour, which helped him earn his DP World Tour card.

7. His brother, Nacho, also plays on the DP World Tour.

8. Manuel began playing golf at a young age with his older brother and their parents, vet Manuel and French teacher Monica.

9. Elvira came close to claiming a PGA Tour title in 2025, before finishing third at the ISCO Championship.

10. He co-led with Filippo Celli after three rounds of the 2026 BMW PGA Championship.

Alejandro Del Rey had considerable success in the amateur game before turning professional in 2020.

Since then, more titles have come his way while he has established himself on the DP World Tour.

Here are 10 facts about the Spaniard.

Alejandro Del Rey Facts

1. Alejandro del Rey was born on February 15th 1998 in Madrid, Spain.

2. He was an accomplished amateur. Among his achievements were joining the Spanish national team at the age of 14 and helping his country win the 2017 European Amateur Team Championship.

3. He attended Arizona State University from 2016 to 2020, winning four collegiate events.

4. During his college career, he made 26 eagles, second behind Jon Rahm in Sun Devils history.

5. Del Rey’s first win after turning professional came in his third start, with victory on the Alps Tour at the Open de la Mirabelle d'Or.

6. After joining the Challenge Tour in 2021, he set the record for the lowest-ever round to par on a major circuit with a 14-under-par 58 at the Swiss Challenge.

7. His first Challenge Tour title came in 2022 at the Big Green Egg German Challenge.

8. Despite that win, he narrowly missed out on a DP World Tour card, but he earned one anyway via Q School.

9. Del Rey’s first DP World Tour victory came in 2025 at the Ras Al Khaimah Championship.

10. His Major debut came at the 2023 US Open at Los Angeles Country Club, where he missed the cut.

Neal Shipley is one of the game’s rising stars, who earned cult status before he even turned professional.

That was thanks to his appearance at the 2024 Masters, which came by virtue of his runner-up finish at the previous year’s US Amateur.

Shipley won fans over throughout the tournament, not least when he took being paired with Tiger Woods in the final round completely in his stride on the way to earning low amateur honors.

His hugely impressive week was helped by fellow Pittsburgh Central Catholic High School graduate Carter Pitcairn, who was on his bag at Augusta National.

Shipley turned to Ohio State assistant coach Jimmy Beck for his second Major appearance of the year, the US Open at Pinehurst No.2, where he finished low amateur again.

He turned professional after the event, and has largely been with Greg Dyne since.

Dyne, who had previously worked with Kevin Dougherty, was alongside Shipley for his first two professional wins, both on the Korn Ferry Tour.

Shipley’s maiden title came at the 2025 LECOM Suncoast Classic, where Dyne assisted as he beat Seung-taek Lee in a playoff.

Three months later, he won his second title at The Ascendent, with Dougherty one of two players to fall one shot short of Shipley.

Those victories helped Shipley place fourth on the season-long Korn Ferry Tour points list to earn his PGA Tour card for the 2026 season.

Shipley struggled at the start of the year, but the first event of the FedExCup Fall, the Biltmore Championship Asheville, saw his partnership with Dyne reap rewards once again.

The 25-year-old topped the leaderboard at the 36-hole stage at 15-under-par as he looked to secure both his maiden PGA Tour title and his status on the circuit for the foreseeable future.

Shane Lowry's wait for victory ended on Sunday, with the Major winner lapping the field at the Amgen Irish Open to claim a second home title.

Shooting a 23-under tournament total, he was 11 shots clear of the nearest challenger, with the winning margin the largest in the event's history.

Check out his full what's in the bag set up from Ireland below...

Driver

Beginning with the driver, where Lowry uses a new prototype Srixon model, which was first introduced to the professional circuits in June of this year.

Used by the likes of Hideki Matsuyama, Lowry's driver is set at 9° and possesses a Mitsubishi Diamana 70 TX shaft.

Fairway Woods

In terms of fairway woods, Lowry uses the TaylorMade Qi4D, which is ranked among the best fairway woods money can buy.

Introduced at the start of the year, he has a 3-wood and 7-wood, with the former a HL model, which stands for high launch. Possessing 16.5° of loft, you'll find a Graphite Design Tour AD DI 8 X shaft, while the 7-wood is set at 21° and has the 9 X shaft.

Irons

Like multiple Srixon staffers, Lowry opts for a combo set of Srixon irons, using the more forgiving ZXi5 in 4-iron and 5-iron, as well as the ZXi7 in 6-iron to pitching wedge.

Interestingly, he uses a Nippon N.S. Pro Modus3 120 X shaft in the 4-iron and 5-iron, while the 6-iron to pitching wedge possess the KBS Tour 130 X shafts.

Ranked among the best golf irons on the market, this setup has been in Lowry's bag for a while, and we don't see it changing any time soon.

Wedges

In the scoring section of the bag, Lowry uses the brand-new Cleveland RTZ 2 in a 50° and 56° configuration, while the older RTZ is present in a 60°.

Shaft-wise, the KBS Tour 130 X is in all three wedges, with both ranked among the best models on the market.

Putter

Lowry's putter was incredible throughout the Amgen Irish Open, with the Major winner producing nine one-putts on the back nine of his third round on Saturday.

Previously, he was using the Odyssey 2-ball putter, but changed to the TaylorMade Spider Tour Z around 2022/23, with it possessing a SuperStroke Zenergy Pistol Tour grip.

Golf Ball

Lowry plays the Srixon Z-Star XV golf ball, the firmer-feeling model also used by Matsuyama, Keegan Bradley, and Lucas Glover.

Fast off the tee, playable with the irons, and spinny on wedge shots, the Srixon Z-Star XV provides excellent all-around performance.

Shane Lowry WITB: Full Specs

This year’s Solheim Cup equation has become simple: win the singles session, and you win the Cup. If the singles are tied, the overall match is tied and USA will retain the Cup as holders.

America have the better singles record historically, but in recent years Europe has improved at this aspect, and have either won or tied the single sessions in the past five Cups – two wins, three ties.

This is a Cup that may well go down to the final putt.

The final day gets underway at 5:10am ET (10:10am BST).

Shane Lowry one-putted every green on the back nine in his third round to pull away from the field and leads by four shots going into the final day.

He is aiming to win his national Open for the second time, 17 years after he won it as a 22-year-old amateur.

At one stage Lowry, three ahead at the start of Saturday, was caught by Jacob Skov Olesen who is chasing his first DP World Tour title.

“It's a big day for me tomorrow," Lowry said after his third round. “I’m going to be leading my home tournament and it would mean the world to knock this one off. So I’m just going to have to put my head down, get back to work whenever my tee time is tomorrow, and give it a run.”

That tee time is 2.05pm (9.05am ET). He is last out with the left-handed Jacob Skov Olesen.

Preview

Rory McIlroy and Jon Rahm are two of the big-name golfers competing in the 71st Irish Open. Defending champion McIlroy is aiming, as is Rahm, to become only the fifth man to win three Irish Opens following Seve Ballesteros, Sir Nick Faldo, Bernard Langer and Colin Montgomerie.

Shane Lowry, who won this Open in 2009 as an amateur, is another who will get huge home support from the galleries. Other Irishmen playing include Padraig Harrington, Tom McKibbin and Seamus Power.

Rahm and McKibbin are joined by fellow LIV golfers Tyrrell Hatton, Sergio Garcia and Joaquin Niemann. Past LIV players and Major winners Brooks Koepka and Patrick Reed are also teeing it up.

Next year’s Ryder Cup will be held in Ireland and this is a chance to catch the eye of European captain Luke Donald, who is making only his third appearance of the year on the DP World Tour. The majority of each of the past two Ryder Cup teams are in the field, as well as three of his vice captains for next year.

This is the first time the Irish Open has been held at the course which was called Doonbeg before Donald Trump bought it. It is rumoured that the American President, in Ireland for talks with the Irish President, will present the trophy.

Being the son of one of the best golfers to ever walk the planet has it's pressures, but Charlie Woods is forging out a nice junior career as of now.

Claiming a handful of victories, Charlie is the son of 15-time Major winner Tiger Woods, with the former committing to Florida State University for 2027.

What's more, in September 2026, Woods signed an NIL (name, image and likeness) deal with TaylorMade, with his full what's in the bag listed below.

Having used a Titleist driver, Woods is now using the TaylorMade Qi4D Core with a Graphite Design Tour AD DI 6 X shaft.

Set at 10.5°, the American then has the TaylorMade Qi4D fairway woods in a 3-wood and 7-wood configuration.

Shaft-wise, Woods uses the Mitsubishi Diamana D+ Limited 80 TX in his 3-wood and the Fujikura Ventus Black VeloCore+ 8 X in his 7-wood, while the 3-wood is set at 15° and the 7-wood at 21°.

Moving to the irons, Woods has the TaylorMade P7CB in a 3-iron and 4-iron, while he uses the TaylorMade P7TW in a 5-iron to pitching wedge configuration.

Both models rank among the best TaylorMade irons money can buy, with the P7TW inspired by his dad, Tiger, who helped design them. The clubs feature a longer blade length, thinner topline and progressive face height.

Possessing True Temper Dynamic Gold Tour Issue X100 shafts, the S400 model is in his wedges, meaning he has the same set-up as his dad when it comes to the golf shafts in his irons and wedges.

In terms of wedges, Woods has the TaylorMade MG5 in play, specifically in 54° and 60°. Because he has a 3-iron in the bag, it means he only uses two wedges.

The final club in the bag is the putter, which has been changed regularly throughout his young career,

Woods has used a L.A.B. Golf DF3, as well as a TaylorMade Spider Tour X model. Most recently, though, he has been using a Scotty Cameron 009 Prototype, a blade model that has been used by the likes of three-time Major winner Jordan Spieth.

Rounding out Woods' WITB is the golf ball, where he uses a TaylorMade TP5x, one of the best premium models money can buy.

Charlie Woods WITB: Full Specs

Marco Penge is one the longest hitters in professional golf and, despite a poor 2026 by his standards, has found himself in contention on a handful of occasions.

Plying his trade on the PGA Tour and DP World Tour, the Englishman signed with PXG at the beginning of this season, with his full what's in the bag specs listed below...

Beginning with the driver, Penge uses the PXG Lightning Tour Mid, which is set at 9° and possesses a Fujikura Ventus Black TR 7 X shaft.

Previously, he had a PXG Secret Weapon mini driver in play, but the DP World Tour winner has returned to his TaylorMade BRNR mini driver, which was the weapon of choice prior to his PXG move.

Penge's mini driver is set at 13.5° and has a Fujikura Ventus Black TR 8 X shaft, while he also has a utility iron in the bag, specifically a PXG Gen8 driving iron.

Featuring 18° of loft, the driving iron has a Fujikura Ventus Black HB 10 X shaft.

Moving to the irons, where Penge was previously using the PXG 0317 ST, but moved to the more forgiving PXG Gen8 from 4-iron to pitching wedge.

He has KBS V10 130X shafts in the irons, while the same shaft is in his 50° wedge. From there, a Project X 7.0 Wedge shaft is in his 56° and a standard Project X 7.0 in his 60°.

In terms of wedges, Penge has Titleist Vokey SM11s in a raw finish, which are among the best wedges that money can buy.

In 2025, Penge claimed three DP World Tour wins with three different putters and, in his most recent start, he was using a Scotty Cameron Phantom 11A OC Tour Prototype.

Like the previous year, Penge has mixed up the flat stick, so it's unclear as to whether this is a permanent move, but one aspect that does appear to be permanent is the golf ball, where Penge has moved to a prototype Titleist model.

Previously using the Titleist Pro V1 Left Dot, he moved to the standard Pro V1 in 2024, before then changing to the Titleist Pro V1x Double Dot.

A Tour-only model designed for the longest hitters, Cameron Young was the first player to put it in play, as he claimed the Wyndham Championship last year.

Since then, Bryson DeChambeau and Gary Woodland have also used it in competition play.

Scott Jamieson has spent the last 20 years in the professional game, and has largely built his reputation on the DP World Tour.

Here are 10 things to know about the player.

Scott Jamieson Facts

1. Scott Jamieson was born November 28th 1983 in Glasgow, Scotland.

2. After an amateur career that included playing for Scotland in the 2006 Eisenhower Trophy, he turned professional later that year.

3. Jamieson’s first professional win came three years later on the PGA EuroPro Tour.

4. That earned him a Challenge Tour card for 2010.

5. Six consecutive top-20 finishes in his maiden Challenge Tour season were enough to secure a DP World Tour card for 2011.

6. His maiden Major appearance came at the 2011 Open, which was held at Royal St George’s, although he missed the cut.

7. In December 2012, he claimed his first DP World Tour title at the Nelson Mandela Championship. After a 14-year wait, he added a second title at the 2026 Nexo Championship.

8. Jamieson's first DP World Tour win involved a round of 57, although it wasn’t quite as impressive as that sounds. That’s because parts of the course were so waterlogged that the layout had to be shortened by about 1,600 yards, which was adjusted to a par 65 in a 36-hole contest.

9. At the 2013 Portugal Masters, he nearly carded a 59. After 11 birdies in the first 17 holes of his third round, he needed one more at the 18th to break 60. However, his chip towards the hole just drifted past.

10. Per PGATour.com, Jamieson’s favorite Major is The Masters. However, he has yet to play in it. Overall, he has four Open appearances and one in the PGA Championship, resulting in a T29 in 2013.

Watch the BMW Championship 2026 as the leading players in the world tee it up in the penultimate FedExCup playoff.

Wyndham Clark goes into the final round with a five-shot lead following rounds of 66-66-65. His third round 65 was matched by Rory McIlroy, who he will partner in the final round. They tee off at 1.50pm ET (6.50 BST).

McIlroy is tied in second with Patrick Cantlay. Cantlay is currently in 43rd spot in the FedExCup standings and needs at least a solo seventh finish to have any chance of breaking into the top 30 and making the Tour Championship.

Gary Woodland, who is 31st in the standings, is well positioned to break into the top 30 as he is tied in 4th.

Sungjae Im was the only player to move from outside the top 50 into it at the St Jude Championship, to qualify for the BMW Championship. He is 40th in the FedExCup standings. As a bare minimum, has to finish at least solo 8th to have a chance of making it to East Lake. He is 7th going into the final round.

The top 50 in the FedExCup rankings head to Bellerive Country Club for the BMW Championship, the second event of the 2026 FedExCup Playoffs. Only the top 30 in the rankings will advance to the Tour Championship at East Lake.

Defending champion Scottie Scheffler leads the rankings by nearly 1,450 points and is guaranteed to remain No. 1 heading into East Lake. The other top 18 have also secured their places, including second and third-placed Matt Fitzpatrick and Cam Young and Rory McIlroy, who is currently 13th.

With less than 2.5 points separating Kurt Kitayama in 28th and Gary Woodland in 31st, the battle for the final spots is set to be particularly tight.

There is also a $100 million bonus pool to be allocated based on the rankings after the BMW Championship.

Beginning with the driver, a club where Knapp has changed regularly, with his most recent start featuring a Ping G440 LST.

He had been using a PXG Lightning Tour Max but, during the Playoffs, he changed to the G440 LST, which possesses a 9° head and a Project X HZRDUS T1100 75 6.5 shaft.

Because he is regarded as one of the longer hitters on the PGA Tour, Knapp opts for a mini driver, specifically a PXG Secret Weapon that is set at 13° and has a Project X HZRDUS T1100 95 6.5 shaft.

Rounding out the wood section of his set-up is the TaylorMade Qi10, which is in a 5-wood configuration and still used by some of the world's best despite being released in 2024.

Set at 18°, Knapp pairs it with a Project X HZRDUS T1100 95 6.5 shaft.

Moving to the irons, where Knapp has a Titleist T250 3-iron and PXG 0211 ST in 4-iron to pitching wedge.

KBS Tour C-Taper 130 X shafts are present in the irons and, in the wedges, that shaft continues in the 52° and 56°, while a Nippon NS Pro Modus3 WV 125 features in the 60°.

Speaking of the wedges, the 52° is a PXG Sugar Daddy II, while the 56° is a Titleist Vokey SM11. Like many professionals, Knapp has a Vokey Wedgeworks 60°.

Rounding out the bag is the putter, which is another area that Knapp has changed regularly throughout 2026.

He has been predominantly using Scotty Cameron models, with his most recent start being a Phantom 9.2R Tour Prototype.

The final aspect is the golf ball and, because of his speed, Knapp has the Titleist Pro V1 Left Dot in play, which is designed to provide low spin and a lower ball flight.

Preview

The top 70 golfers in the FedExCup standings have qualified for the St. Jude Championship, and all bar the injured Daniel Berger are playing.

This includes three-time FedExCup winner Rory McIlroy, who skipped the event last year. For McIlroy, it is his first tournament since the Open Championship.

Rory McIlroy lies 12th in the standings. Scottie Scheffler is top, despite not having won a tournament since January. The World No. 1 came tied third here last year.

That tournament was won by Justin Rose, who defeated JJ Spaun in a playoff.

With the top 50 players in the standings after the St. Jude Championship progressing to the next playoff tournament, the BMW Championship, Rose is one of those needing a decent tournament result to ensure he is in the top 50. He is currently ranked 46th.

Some of the other big names are positioned around the 50th spot, including Max Homa (52nd), Sungjae Im (53rd), and Jordan Spieth (54th).

The player with the most ground to make up is 70th-placed 21-year-old Jackson Koivun, who, in just his third professional start, won the 3M Open last month.

Davis Riley has claimed several victories worldwide since turning professional, with the American earning multiple wins on the PGA Tour.

A Titleist staffer, Riley uses a near full set-up of the brand's clubs, with his full what's in the bag listed below...

Beginning with the driver, where Riley has the Titleist GTS2 in play, which features a 9° head and a Fujikura Ventus Black VeloCore+ 6 X shaft.

The only non-Titleist club in Riley's bag is his fairway wood, as he uses a Callaway Paradym Ai Smoke Max in 18° of loft and a Fujikura Ventus TR Black 8 X shaft.

Although the hybrid is becoming less and less popular on the professional circuits, Riley continues to use the club, specifically a Titleist TSR2. Set at 21°, another Fujikura shaft is present, specifically a Ventus Black HB 9 TX.

Moving to the irons, with Riley using the Titleist T100 in a 4-iron to 9-iron configuration. He pairs it with KBS Tour C-Taper 125 S+ shafts.

Yealimi Noh enjoyed an excellent amateur career and, turning professional in 2019, she has gone on to claim an LPGA Tour win and a Solheim Cup appearance.

An equipment-free agent, the American has a mix of clubs in the bag, including TaylorMade, Callaway, Titleist and L.A.B Golf.

In the driver department, she uses a TaylorMade Qi4D, which is set at 9° and possesses a Graphite Design Tour AD FI 6 S shaft.

The Callaway Quantum Ti 3-wood is the next weapon of choice for Noh, with the 25-year-old using it in a 15° loft and a Fujikura Ventus Blue 6 S shaft.

Instead of another fairway wood, Noh has a Titleist GT2 hybrid in play, which is set at 18° and has a Mitsubishi Tensei 1K Pro Hybrid 80 HY shaft.

Moving to the irons, where you'll find a mixed set of Titleist T200 and Titleist T100. The former features in a 4-iron and 5-iron, while the T100 is in a 6-iron to 9-iron.

Ranked among the best Titleist irons on the market, the shaft of choice is the KBS Tour Lite 95, with a similar configuration also featuring in her wedges.

Speaking of her scoring section, Noh uses Titleist Vokey SM11s in a 48°, 54° and 58° configuration. They also have KBS shafts, specifically KBS Tour Lite S.

The final club in the bag is a L.A.B Golf Mezz 1 Max putter, which Noh uses in a broom handle set-up, something that was present for her Founders Cup win in 2025.

Rounding out her what's in the bag with her golf ball, Noh has the Titleist Pro V1 in play, one of the best golf balls money can buy.

Yealimi Noh WITB: Full Specs

Lucy Li has been known to golf fans for many years, having qualified for the 2014 US Women’s Open when she was just 11, becoming the youngest player to achieve it in the tournament’s history.

Fast-forward 12 years, and after 54 holes of the 2026 AIG Women’s Open, she was making her name at a Major again, tied for second on the leaderboard, three shots behind leader Yealimi Noh.

Li’s enviable position on the leaderboard with just 18 holes to play perhaps isn’t too surprising, because despite still only being 23, she has plenty of experience of big events and is in her seventh year as a pro.

Along the way, she has won twice, while she has had strong finishes at other Majors, including T12 at the 2025 KPMG Women’s PGA Championship.

During her professional career, Li has worked with caddies including Bryan Bush and John Pavelko. However, for the Royal Lytham & St Annes edition of the AIG Women's Open, her caddie was someone with solid experience of the tournament – Paul Drummond.

Drummond was born in Scotland, close to two-time host venue of the AIG Women’s Open, Carnoustie. Indeed, it was during the 2021 edition of the AIG Women's Open at Carnoustie that he caddied for LPGA Tour legend Lexi Thompson.

Drummond worked as a club caddie at Carnoustie for 16 years, and that knowledge of the course clearly helped, as Thompson was T4 after three rounds and firmly in contention for her second Major title, before finishing in a tie for 20th.

Following his spell helping Thompson, Drummond turned to DP World Tour player Dan Bradbury. After that, he returned to the LPGA Tour scene, assisting Nicole Broch Estrup and Olivia Cowan before linking up with LI, setting the wheels in motion for their shot at AIG Women's Open glory.

Rasmus Hojgaard has five victories on the DP World Tour and, because of his good play, was part of the winning European Ryder Cup team in 2025.

Like his twin brother, Nicolai, Rasmus is a Callaway staffer and uses a full set-up of the brand's golf clubs.

Regarded as one of the PGA Tour's longest hitters, the driver of choice for the Dane is the Callaway Paradym Ai Smoke Triple Diamond.

An older model that was released in 2024, the driver is set at 9.5° and possesses a Mitsubishi Tensei 1K Blue 60 TX shaft.

In terms of the top-end of the bag, Hojgaard then uses a Callaway Quantum Ti 3-wood, which has 15° of loft and a Project X Titan 6.5 70 shaft.

Rounding out the woods, he then uses the new Callaway Apex UW, one of the best golf hybrids money can buy. Set at 21°, a prototype Nippon NS Pro shaft is in play for the DP World Tour winner.

Depending on course set-up, Hojgaard implements a Callaway X Forged UT 3-iron, with his main set-up involving the Callaway X Forged from 4-iron to pitching wedge.

Shaft-wise, KBS $-Taper 130 feature, while the KBS Tour 130 X and Tour-V 130 are prominent in the wedge set-up.

In the scoring section of the bag, Hojgaard has an Opus Raw 52° and Opus SP wedges in 56° and 60°. The Tour 130 X shaft is used in the 52° and 56°, while the Tour-V 130 is in the 60°.

Rounding out his set-up with the putter, where you'll find the Odyssey Ai-One Milled Jailbird Mini T Versa 90 DB, a mallet-design that has been in the bag for some time.

Golf ball-wise, the Callaway Chrome Tour X is in the bag of the Dane, with it one of the best golf balls on the market.

Rasmus Hojgaard WITB: Full Specs

Patrick Cantlay has enjoyed a successful PGA Tour career, with the American claiming significant titles, including the FedEx Cup and Tour Championship in 2021.

A multiple-time Ryder Cup player, Cantlay had previously been a Titleist staffer but, a few years ago, became an equipment-free agent.

Despite being an equipment-free agent, Cantlay still uses a Titleist heavy set-up, albeit older models than we are used to seeing.

At the top order of the bag you will find a Titleist GTS4 driver, which has a 9° head and a Mitsubishi Diamana ZF 60 TX shaft.

In terms of fairway woods, this is where the oldest clubs in the set-up feature, as a Titleist 915F 3-wood and Titleist TS2 7-wood are present.

The 915F was released at the end of 2014, while the TS2 came out in 2018. Like we see with Robert MacIntyre and Justin Thomas, fairway woods are often the clubs that stay in the bag for the longest period, with Cantlay no exception.

In terms of lofts and shaft, the 3-wood is set at 15° and has a Mitsubishi Diamana ZF 70 TX, while the 7-wood has 21° of loft and the same ZF 70 TX shaft.

Iron-wise, Cantlay uses a Titleist T200 3-iron, which is swapped in-and-out of the bag depending on course set-up.

Despite being released in 2018, he also still uses the Titleist AP2. Cantlay did have a stint using the Ping Blueprint S, but moved back to the AP2s due to the familiarity he has with them, using the clubs for the majority of his victories.

Featuring in a 4-iron to 9-iron configuration, True Temper Dynamic Gold Tour Issue X100 shafts are in play for Cantlay, a popular model on the professional circuits.

Moving to the scoring section of the bag, where Cantlay has three different models of Titleist Vokey wedges.

Using the Vokey SM7 for his 46°, which is bent to 47°, he also has an SM7 52°, which is bent to 51.5°.

From there, an SM10 is present for his 56°, which again is bent to 57°. Rounding out the wedge set-up is a Titleist Vokey WedgeWorks, a 60° model adjusted to 61°.

Putter-wise, this is the only non-Titleist club in Cantlay's set-up, with the Ryder Cup star now using a TaylorMade Spider Tour X, having previously used a Scotty Cameron Phantom 7.2 Prototype.

The final aspect of his bag is the golf ball, with Cantlay using the Titleist Pro V1x, one of the best premium golf balls on the market.

SHIHO KUWAKI BIO

Yealimi Noh achieved a career breakthrough in 2025, when she beat Jin Young Ko to win the Founders Cup for her maiden LPGA Tour title.

Almost 18 months later, Noh opened the 2026 AIG Women's Open with a four-under 67 to head back to the clubhouse near the top of the leaderboard in her bid to add a Major title to her resume.

In recent years, the American has worked with caddie Tyler Ekenberg, but who is he, and how did he embark on his career?

Ekenberg hails from Minnesota, where he took up the game as a youngster.

Later, he attended the University of North Alabama, where he played on its golf team. After leaving the amateur game behind, he spent a season on the Asian Development Tour in 2015, where he achieved a best finish of eighth.

Around that time, though, Ekenberg's career took a different direction when he crossed paths with Alison Lee at the 2015 CME Group Tour Championship.

That meeting led to Ekenberg becoming Lee’s full-time caddie. However, by 2024, she had linked up with Taylor “Shota” Takada, with Ekenberg going on to work alongside Noh.

Success for the pair soon followed, not least with Noh’s Founders Cup victory, finishing four shots clear of Ko.

While another LPGA Tour victory eluded Noh between the Founders Cup and the 2026 AIG Women's Open, she recorded several top-10 finishes with Ekenberg on the bag before her opening round at Royal Lytham & St Annes put her in the early running for the biggest title of her career.

Haeran Ryu has made a big impression in her time on the LPGA Tour, which began in 2023 after she won the LPGA Tour Q Series.

That breakthrough came after a successful spell on the LPGA of Korea, which included five wins.

Ahead of the 2026 AIG Women’s Open, Ryu already had the same number of victories on the LPGA Tour, including two Major titles in the months leading up to the Royal Lytham & St Annes tournament.

The first came at the KPMG Women’s PGA Championship, where she beat fellow South Korean Ina Yoon by two at Hazeltine, before she saw off Brooke Henderson in a playoff to win the Amundi Evian Championship just two weeks later.

Ryu’s hot streak continued in the first round of the AIG Women’s Open, where she was jostling for top spot on the leaderboard in her bid for her third Major title in a little over two months.

Throughout her LPGA Tour career, the caddie who has helped her achieve those successes has been Martin Bozek.

He certainly brings plenty of experience to the role, having started life on the LPGA Tour in 2012, with one notable stint as the long-term caddie of Eun Hee Ji.

Bozek’s partnership with the 2009 US Women's Open champion led to him being named the HSBC Caddy of the Year in 2019, a title confirmed at that year's HSBC Women’s World Championship.

When he was presented with his bib commemorating the achievement, Ji praised her caddie, saying: “He’s the best. He’s just the best at everything.”

Bozek, who has also caddied for players including Danielle Kang and Dawie van der Walt on the Korn Ferry Tour, seems to have made a similar impression on Ryu.

An example of the pair's close working relationship came with the LPGA Tour's Caddie Knows Best video series. It saw Bozek holding up pre-written answers to questions about Ryu. To her delight, he didn't put a foot wrong.

Considering the rapport between the pair, combined with Bozek's experience, it's little surprise that they have achieved success together, with the partnership showing every sign of continuing to flourish.

With Ryu again contending at a Major after her fast start at Royal Lytham & St Annes, the pair had another opportunity to cement what was already one of the most successful player-caddie partnerships on the LPGA Tour.

In just his third event as a professional, Jackson Koivun won the 3M Open, beating none other than World No.1 Scottie Scheffler by three.

Helping him surge to the top of the leaderboard at TPC Twin Cities was his caddie, David Flynn, but who is he?

Like former Auburn star Koivun, Illinois-born Flynn played college golf, attending the University of Nevada-Las Vegas.

After graduating with a Bachelor of Arts in history, he took up caddying in 2014, with spells working alongside players including Trey Mullinax, Troy Merritt and Kevin Tway.

However, it’s working with Koivun where he has really begun making his name.

While Flynn was firmly in the spotlight at the 3M Open, he had been with Koivun for significantly longer.

Flynn was alongside Koivun during the latter stages of his amateur career, culminating in his low amateur finish at the 2026 US Open the day before he turned professional

With Flynn continuing the good work they started in the amateur game, that familiarity has surely helped him settle into the task.

In a twist of fate, Kurt Kitayama was the defending champion when Koivun was racing to the top of the leaderboard at the 3M Open.

The two-time PGA Tour winner was a teammate of Flynn’s at university and spoke beforehand about getting the chance to catch up with him.

He said: “We went to school together. Should be fun. It’s fun, he'll be walking around the course when we're playing a practice round, hang out, so looking forward to it.”

Flynn isn’t just a caddie, either. He has also used the experience he has gained working alongside some of the world’s best to become teaching golf, specifically as an instructor with PARennial Golf.

Jerry Kelly has three wins on the PGA Tour, as well as 13 wins on the PGA Tour Champions circuit, where he has enjoyed his most success.

Making over 600 appearances on the PGA Tour, the American is an equipment-free agent and, following his success on the senior circuit, he continues to produce fine result after fine result.

At his most recent start, Kelly was using the Callaway Quantum Triple Diamond Max driver and Quantum Max fairway woods.

His driver is set at 9° and possesses a Tour AD Graphite Design VF 6 X shaft, while the 3-wood has a Tour AD Design Graphite CQ 7 S shaft.

In the top order of his bag, a Callaway Apex 16° hybrid and Apex Pro 18° make up the remainder of his set-up, with both featuring a Recoil Prototype Hybrid 85 F4 shaft and Project X Denali 80g HY 6 shaft.

Iron-wise, Srixon ZX7 is present from 5-iron to pitching wedge, as True Temper Dynamic Gold Tour Issue X100 shafts complete the set-up.

Kelly opts for Cleveland wedges, specifically the RTX 5 Tour Rack in a 52° and 60° configuration.

The final club in his bag is the Odyssey O-Works 2-Ball putter, which has been in the set up for some time. In fact, in 2009, the flatstick played a key role in his Zurich Classic of New Orleans victory.

Golf ball-wise, Kelly uses the Srixon Z-Star XV, one of the best premium golf balls on the market and the same model Ryan Fox used for his Open Championship victory.
