PGA Championship field: Who will be teeing it up at Quail Hollow
The PGA of America unveiled on Tuesday morning the field for next week's 107th PGA Championship at Quail Hollow Club in Charlotte, North Carolina.
World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler, reigning Masters champion Rory McIlroy and defending PGA champion Xander Schauffele are among those scheduled to compete in the year's second major championship.
Surprisingly, No. 125 Rickie Fowler received an invite; there are 13 pros ranked ahead of Fowler in the Official World Golf Ranking who are not in field, which is traditionally filled with players ranked inside and just outside the top 100 in OWGR. The PGA criteria also states that the PGA 'reserves the right to invite additional players to complete the field.'
Sixteen current LIV players will tee it up at Quail Hollow: Richard Bland, Dean Burmester, John Catlin, Bryson DeChambeau, Sergio Garcia, Tyrrell Hatton, Dustin Johnson, Martin Kaymer, Brooks Koepka, Tom McKibbin, Phil Mickelson, Joaquin Niemann, David Puig, Jon Rahm, Patrick Reed and Cameron Smith.
Lucas Herbert, Sebastian Munoz, Carlos Ortiz and Marc Leishman all were not invited to compete, though all currently sit top 10 in LIV's individual standings.
Victor Perez, at No. 109 in the OWGR, is the highest-ranked player not in the field. No. 110 Patrick Fishburn is first alternate, and with Billy Horschel announcing he's about to have right hip surgery, Fishburn will surely be bumped into the field.
There are two spots that will either go to winners of the Truist Championship and Myrtle Beach Classic, or if those winners are already in, the PGA will pull from the alternate list, where Fishburn is followed by Rico Hoey, Michael Thorbjornsen, Perez and Alex Smalley, in that order.
Here is the full field list (currently at 154 players):

Former Longhorn Scottie Scheffler joins Tiger Woods as only repeat winners at Memorial
Former Longhorn Scottie Scheffler joins Tiger Woods as only repeat winners at Memorial Scottie Scheffler is dominating pro golf. The Texas Longhorns golf alum, fresh off winning the PGA Championship two weeks ago, has become only the second repeat winner at the Memorial. Only Tiger Woods, who won three times in a row (1999-2001) had repeated at the tournament in Dublin, Ohio is hosted by golf legend Jack Nicklaus. Scheffler surged to the lead at Muirfield Village on Saturday and held on with his trademark machine-like efficiency on Sunday. After celebrating the win on the 18th green, Scheffler was embraced by Nicklaus, sitting greenside. Nicklaus exclaimed, "Well, you did it again." The Dallas native was the only player to break par all four days. He now has three wins on tour this year, which includes his third major championship at Quail Hollow. His season started slow after cutting his hand over the holidays severe enough that it needed surgery. The former "ESPN GameDay" guest picker will play next in two weeks in the U.S. Open at Oakmont.

Major Rory McIlroy News Draws Attention Ahead of RBC Canadian Open
Major Rory McIlroy News Draws Attention Ahead of RBC Canadian Open originally appeared on Athlon Sports. PGA Tour star Rory McIlroy has faced significant backlash this week after making a somewhat last-minute decision to withdraw from golf legend Jack Nicklaus' annual Memorial Tournament, which is currently heading into its final round on Sunday with many of the sport's top players competing. Advertisement The criticism surrounding McIlroy stems from the fact that he avoided the media for four days at the PGA Championship and then reportedly did not inform Nicklaus directly of his decision to withdraw. While Nicklaus made it clear that McIlroy doesn't owe him anything, he admitted he was surprised by the move. 'I'm not throwing Rory under the bus,' Nicklaus said. 'I like Rory too much. He's a good kid. He's played some great golf. He's had a lot of things happen to him. He's got to make his own call on things. Could he have done them differently? Probably. But that's all right—I could probably have done some of mine differently, too. I'm not complaining about Rory.' He continued, 'I haven't talked to him for him to tell me why or why not. It's just his call. I made a lot of calls when I played—whether to play or not play—and sometimes they weren't popular. But sometimes you have to make those calls. I don't hold anything against Rory for that. 'I'm a big Rory fan. I always have been. I'm sure I'll remain that way. I was just … a little surprised, yes.' Rory McIlroy looks on on the tenth hole during the third round of the Truist Championship golf tournament. Bill Streicher-Imagn Images Despite the controversy surrounding McIlroy's absence and lack of communication with the media, he is expected to return to action this week at the RBC Canadian Open. It was announced on Sunday that he will be available and will speak to the media on Wednesday following the Pro-Am. This will mark his first media appearance since before the PGA Championship. McIlroy has had a stellar year on the PGA Tour and is currently ranked No. 2 in the world, behind only Scottie Scheffler. Scheffler has also been heating up, holding a one-shot lead heading into the final 18 holes of the Memorial on Sunday as he aims for victory just weeks after winning the PGA Championship—his second career major. Advertisement This year, McIlroy's most prominent win came at Augusta National, where he captured the Masters for the first time to complete the career Grand Slam. He's also claimed titles at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am and The Players Championship.
