The TOUR returns to the Rocket Classic in Detroit, Michigan, where there are plenty of big-name stars teeing it up alongside some of the game’s best up-and-comers. Travelers Championship winner and 2025 United States Ryder Cup Captain Keegan Bradley is among the field heading to the Motor City, looking to drive home another win this week. Alongside Bradley, and topping the field is the world No. 5 Collin Morikawa, who lost here in a playoff in 2023 and will be looking for a different fortune this time round. Joining these two are players such as Rickie Fowler, Hideki Matsuyama and Min Woo Lee. Detroit Golf Club will once again play host, and at the conclusion of this year’s event, it’s set to undergo a $16-million renovation – including all new greens.
