With three of the four major championships in the books and last week's Travelers Championship marking the eighth and final Signature Event of the 2025 season, the PGA Tour has just eight tournaments remaining on the schedule before the FedEx Cup Playoffs begin, the first being this week's Rocket Classic.
While the starting field at Detroit Golf Club wasn't nearly as strong as those we've seen the last month or so at the Memorial, the RBC Canadian Open, the U.S. Open, and the Travelers, it still featured five of the top 20 players in the Official World Golf Ranking in Collin Morikawa (No. 5), Keegan Bradley (No. 7), Hideki Matsuyama (No. 12), Ben Griffin (No. 17), and Patrick Cantlay (No. 20), all five of whom were among the 86 players to make the cut.
Some other high-profile names, though, weren't as fortunate, a list that included defending champion Cam Davis, 2019 champ Nate Lashley, Rasmus Højgaard, Wyndham Clark, Matt Kuchar, Max Homa, Keith Mitchell, and 2023 winner Rickie Fowler, among others.
As for those who did make it through to the weekend, they'll be competing for a $9.6 million total purse, with the winner taking home $1.728 million, up just a touch from the $1.656 million Davis collected a year ago. The victor also receives 500 FedEx Cup points and a two-year exemption on the PGA Tour.
Here's a look at the full breakdown of the prize distribution at the 2025 Rocket Classic.
