Rocket Mortgage Classic 2024: Everything to know
The PGA Tour returns to the Motor City this week for the sixth edition of the Rocket Mortgage Classic at the historic Detroit Golf Club. Following a lengthy stretch of signature events and a major over the last several weeks, some of the game's best are taking a well-deserved break heading into the final major of the year in a few weeks' time at Royal Troon.
Those who have made the journey to the Midwest will be looking to fine-tune their games ahead of next month's 152nd Open Championship. Defending Rocket Mortgage Classic winner Rickie Fowler returns to Detroit Golf Club this week following his emotional win at this event last year which saw the 35-year-old end a lengthy four-year winless drought on tour.
Rickie became the fifth champion of the Rocket Mortgage Classic after the event made its debut on the PGA Tour schedule for the first time back in 2019. Nate Lashley, who won the inaugural edition, joins Rickie Fowler in this year's field in search of a second Rocket Mortgage win, as does 2021 champion Cam Davis. Past champions who aren't in the field this week include recent US Open winner Bryson DeChambeau (2020), and Tony Finau (2022).
While World No.1 Scottie Scheffler is absent this week, last week's runner-up to Scheffler at the Travelers Championship, Tom Kim, returns to action this week in search of his first win in 2024. Kim is joined by Fowler, Cameron Young, Min Woo Lee, Akshay Bhatia, Taylor Pendrith, Will Zalatoris, and a host of others who will be looking to claim this year's title in Detroit.
It's all perfectly set up to be another exciting week of action in the Motor City. Here is a look at all of the information you need to know ahead of this year's Rocket Mortgage Classic including tee times, purse, format, how to watch, and more.
