2023 Ras al Khaimah Championship field

The 2023 Ras al Khaimah Championship will have a 132-player field. The four-day event, which marks the 10th event of the 2023-2023 DP World Tour schedule, will have top names like 2020 Ryder Cup captain Pádraig Harrington, Viktor Perez, and Thriston Lawrence, amongst others. However, World No. 28 Ryan Fox will headline the field.

The second edition of the Ras al Khaimah Championship will also feature defending champion Nicolai Højgaard. The Danish golfer, who won the debut season last year by beating US golfer Jordan Spieth, will look to defend his title against the likes of Fox, Eddie Pepperell, Adrian Meronk, and more.

However, it’s worth noting that the event only features two of the top 50 in the Official World Golf Rankings among the top contenders, unlike the Hero Dubai Desert Classic.

Here are the top-rated players on the Ras al Khaimah Championship field (as per ranking):

28. Ryan Fox
49. Adrian Meronk
