McIlroy, DeChambeau headline stacked field for Memorial Tournament

Rory McIlroy and Bryson DeChambeau will headline a stout field headed to Columbus, Ohio next week for the Memorial Tournament, the PGA TOUR announced Friday.

McIlroy and DeChambeau represent two of the 19 top-30 players in the 120-man field set to take on Muirfield Village for the event hosted by Jack Nicklaus.

Justin Thomas, Collin Morikawa, Xander Schauffele, Patrick Reed, and defending champion Jon Rahm will also be in action.

Last year, Muirfield Village held back-to-back events due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Morikawa beat Thomas in a playoff at the Workday Championship before Rahm won by three the following week.

Cantlay and DeChambeau won the Memorial in 2019 and 2018, respectively.
