Detroit Golf Club hosts the Rocket Mortgage Classic for the fourth time since the tournament replaced the Quicken Loans National on the PGA Tour schedule.
Two of its previous winners, 2019 victor Nate Lashley and Cam Davis, who won last year, will be back to try and recreate that form. However, Bryson DeChambeau, who won in 2020, is absent. In that tournament, DeChambeau beat Matthew Wolff by three shots. However, this year, both players will instead be teeing it up in the third LIV Golf Invitational Series tournament further east at Trump National Bedminster.
Australian Davis’ victory last year couldn’t have been more intense. His first PGA Tour win came in a dramatic playoff that saw him edge out Troy Merritt and Joaquin Niemann to claim the first prize of $1.35m from the $7.5m purse. This year, the purse is even higher, at $8.4m, meaning the winning player will claim an eye-catching $1.512m.
One man who’ll be brimming with confidence in the pursuit of that goal is Tony Finau. The American took advantage of Scott Piercy’s fourth-round collapse at TPC Twin Cities last week to win his third PGA Tour title. Other names to look out for include World No.4 Patrick Cantlay. He has recently posted a solid run of finishes, including a tie for 8th at The Open at St Andrews, and is looking for his first win since last August. Will Zalatoris, who finished runner-up in two of this year’s Majors, also makes his first appearance since a relatively subdued tie for 28th at The Open.
Elsewhere, Keegan Bradley, who impressed in tying for 7th in last month’s US Open is also in the field. After missing the cut in the year’s fourth Major earlier this month he’ll see this as an ideal opportunity to recover his best form. Former World No.1 Adam Scott, Wells Fargo Championship winner Max Homa and the ever-popular Rickie Fowler also appear.
