The Cognizant Classic in The Palm Beaches returns in 2025 at PGA National, with a number of big names present for the tournament in Florida.
Last year, Austin Eckroat secured his maiden PGA Tour title in his 50th appearance, as the American cruised to a three shot victory on a Monday finish due to heavy rain that washed out much of Sunday's action.
Along with the names playing, this week's tournament features a bumped-up prize fund from last year. The 2024 prize money stood at $9m, with winner Eckroat pocketing $1.62m.
This year's prize pool stands at $9.2m, with the champion earning $1.656m - an increase of $34,000 vs 2024. There's also 500 FedEx Cup points on offer to the winner as well as a two year PGA Tour exemption. The winner also earns a spot in The Masters.
