The PGA Tour returns to Doral for the first time in a decade, sliding into a later spot in the schedule than previously. This marks the first Cadillac Championship as a signature event where the star-studded field is playing for the customary $20 million purse with the winner taking home $3.6 million.
World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler is playing. World No. 2 Rory McIlroy is not. World No. 3 Matt Fitzpatrick is not playing, but his brother Alex is after the duo won the Zurich Classic last week to earn status for Alex. It was the second straight victory for Matt and his third this year. Nos. 4-10 in the world are in the field spanning from Cameron Young to J.J. Spaun.

Adam Scott was the last winner at Doral and he is in the field this week. As is Justin Rose, a winner at Doral in 2012. Cameron Young, Collin Morikawa and Chris Gotterup are others looking to continue on their already stellar seasons.
Joel Dahmen, Max Greyserman, Max Homa and Keith Mitchell each earned a sponsor exemption.
Next week there are two events—the Truist Championship, another signature event, and the Myrtle Beach Classic. Then it’s onto Philadelphia for the PGA Championship at Aronomink. Tis the season.
