Notes: Scottie Scheffler headed home to Dallas after winning the Masters and is playing this week. He will try to become the first player since Bernhard Langer in 1985 to win the week after winning the Masters. ... For the second straight signature event, only 69 players are in the field. Hideki Matsuyama did not enter and Viktor Hovland withdrew after he missed the cut in the Masters. ... If no one withdraws, someone will start the tournament as a single. ... The four sponsor exemptions went to Webb Simpson, Shane Lowry, Gary Woodland and South Carolina native Kevin Kisner. This is the third sponsor exemption Simpson has received to a $20 million tournament. Simpson won at Hilton Head in 2020. ... Justin Thomas narrowly got into the field when he slipped only to No. 30 in the world ranking after missing the cut in the Masters. The top 30 are eligible for signature events.
