Fresh off a second-place finish at the 2022 U.S. Open, World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler leads the field this week at TPC River Highlands, while 2021 winner Harris English will look to defend his title in his third start since having hip surgery in February. However, with the top three players in the FedExCup Standings also in action, the Georgian will face stiff competition. These include Rory McIlroy, who will be full of confidence after defending his title at the RBC Canadian Open and subsequently finishing an impressive T5 at the U.S. Open. Sam Burns will be looking to continue his remarkable form, which has already seen him win three times on the PGA TOUR this season at the Sanderson Farms Championship, the Valspar Championship and the Charles Schwab Challenge. Other notable names to keep an eye on include FedExCup champion Patrick Cantlay, Jordan Spieth and Tommy Fleetwood.

  1. Rory needs to donate all the extra money he makes after trash talking Phil, he needs to personally call Phil and thank/apologize to him for the PGA raising the payout……

  2. Does anyone else want to hear the decision making player/ caddy shot discussions over these shots?

    Just the critical thinking through of each shot.

  3. Rory is on roll the last few weeks! great to see him playing well again! he is the most likely winner in the next coming major! he is good guy, and great person as well.

  4. So good to see him at his best again. If he had the mental toughness of a TW then he would be in double digits for majors. One of the most talented players of all time without a doubt.

  5. He's back there is no doubt about that… Whatever he's done in the last 6 months he's cracked it. Rory to win the Open 🏆

  6. I feel like Rory is the torchbearer of the PGA . Good for him . These guys that have left for the liv tour left their self respect in America

  7. 142ft apex on the first drive….absolutely unreal. I’m happy if I get my drives 100ft up.

  8. Rory is a two faced sanctimonious deserter. He deserted to EURO tour for big BUCKS and now preaches about loyalty. He got no fines, bans or sanctions for deserting INSTEAD he is allowed to play both sides and cherry pick the big money events in euro. He does not get banned etc, So whats all the nonsense about LIV ?

  9. He is not the first person to ever shoot a 62. PGA announcers are acting like he is the second coming of Tiger Woods because he is so outspoken about the LIV tour. He is their poster child now.

  10. nice, got rid of that stupid fade he kept trying to persist with.
