PGA Championship 2023: Here's the full field competing at Oak Hill
Gary Kellner
Eight days ahead of the opening round of the 2023 PGA Championship, the PGA of America released a list of the full field set to compete at Oak Hill Country Club in Rochester, N.Y.
Ten past champions are competing in the event, including Justin Thomas, winner a year ago at Southern Hills when he shot a closing 67 to overcame a seven-shot deficit in the final round before emerging as the winner in a three-hole aggregate playoff with Will Zalatoris. One who is not is Tiger Woods, who underwent ankle surgery last month and appears doubtful to compete in any of this year's remaining majors. This is also down from the 15 originally listed, with Davis Love III, Vijay Singh, Martin Kaymer, Jason Dufner and John Daly all dropping out in recent days.
Also notable are the 17 golfers who compete on the LIV Golf circuit who will be in upstate New York: Abraham Ancer, Dean Burmester, Paul Casey, Bryson DeChambeau, Talor Gooch, Dustin Johnson, Sihwan Kim, Brooks Koepka, Anirban Lahiri, Phil Mickelson, Joaquin Niemann, Mito Pereira, Thomas Pieters, Patrick Reed, Cameron Smith, Brendan Steele and Harold Varner III (Kaymer would have made it 18).
Ninty-nine of the top 100 players in the Official World Golf Ranking are listed in the field, with Zalatoris (No. 9) the only one missing as he is not competing due to recent back surgery.
Currently listed in the field is Jordan Spieth, although his status is uncertain after he went public last week with an announcement that he has a left wrist injury that he’s treating on a week-to-week basis. He pulled out of the AT&T Byron Nelson event in hopes that rest will allow him to compete at Oak Hill and attempt to complete the career Grand Slam.
