The 2024 Rocket Mortgage Classic is underway Thursday at Detroit Golf Club in Detroit, with 156 players competing in the PGA Tour’s sixth annual playing of the event.
Rickie Fowler is the defending champion, defeating Collin Morikawa and Adam Hadwin in the first playoff hole with a birdie last summer.
Flint native Willie Mack III earned a berth this year by winning the weekend’s John Shippen Invitational, and the final four spots were decided in a qualifying tournament Monday: Brandon Berry, Angelo Giantsopoulos, Danny Guise and internet sensation Nick Bienz are in.
The top-two ranked players in the field, Tom Kim (No. 16) and Cameron Young (No. 23), are paired together and off early at 7:45 a.m. on No. 10, along with Scotland’s Robert MacIntyre.
Fowler tees off at 1:05 p.m. with Will Zalatoris and 2021 Rocket champion Cam Davis. Find the full list of tee times.
