Scottie Scheffler and back-to-back defending champion K.H. Lee headline the 2023 AT&T Byron Nelson field
After the ongoing Wells Fargo Championship, the PGA Tour will head to TPC Craig Ranch in McKinney, Texas, for the 2023 AT&T Byron Nelson. The event following the designated tournament will be played from May 11 to 14.
Ahead of the event, the PGA Tour has let out the field list and it features some big names. World No.2 Scottie Scheffler, who sat out this week’s Wells Fargo Championship outing, headlines the 2023 AT&T Byron Nelson field along with Jordan Spieth, Hideki Matsuyama, and back-to-back defending champion Lee Kyoung-hoon, among others.
Rory McIlroy and Jon Rahm will be major names missing from the AT&T Byron Nelson field.
Being a regular PGA Tour event, the AT&T Byron Nelson tournament will have a $9.5 million prize purse. With less than two weeks to this year’s second men’s major championship, the 2023 PGA Championship at Oak Hill, the event is set to have some fiery competition in practice between the players.
The Texas event will be the last-second opportunity for some players to earn a spot in the upcoming major.
