The field for the 2024 Rocket Mortgage Classic is almost set, with 151 spots tallied as of Friday night. There’s a little bit of everything for Detroit golf fans: 10 of the top 50 in the World Golf Rankings, seven major winners, three past Rocket Mortgage Classic winners and a pair of precocious juniors.
The tournament, which returns to Detroit Golf Club for the sixth time, will be held June 25-30 with the first round beginning Thursday. Among the top-ranked golfers coming to town are Cameron Young (No. 23 in the world rankings), Tom Kim (No. 26), Chris Kirk (No. 30) and, of course, Rickie Fowler, who is ranked No. 49th seed and the defending Rocket Mortgage Classic champion after last year’s epic three-way playoff win.
Other past winners returning to Detroit include Cam Davis, who took the trophy in 2021, and Nate Lashley, who won it as a third alternate in 2019, leading from start to finish.

The Rocket Mortgage Classic will also feature several major winners, including Stewart Cink (2009 British Open), Jason Dufner (2013 PGA Championship), Zach Johnson (2007 Masters, 2015 British Open), Francesco Molinari (British Open 2018), Webb Simpson (US Open 2012), Jimmy Walker (PGA Championship 2016) and Gary Woodland (US Open 2019).
At the other end of the experience spectrum, Detroit Golf Club will welcome 15-year-old Miles Russell with a sponsor exemption for his PGA Tour debut. The high school freshman from Jacksonville, Florida, finished 20th at the LECOM Suncoast Classic on the Korn Ferry Tour in April. Also making his PGA Tour debut is Neal Shipley, who already finished as a low amateur at the Masters and US Open this year. The 2023 US Amateur runner-up turned pro this week.
The final five spots will be up for grabs on Sunday and Monday, with one spot available through the John Shippen National Golf Invitational, a 36-hole tournament at Detroit Golf Club on Saturday and Sunday, and the final four will be resolved through Monday’s playoffs. .
