Byron Nelson will host a full field of 156 players at TPC Craig Ranch, playing for a $9.5 million purse. It's the highest purse of any non-elevated event this season.
But being a non-elevated event and falling immediately before the year's second major, the PGA Championship, the Byron Nelson field has just six of the world's top 30 players (five of the top 30 SIWGR):
Scottie Scheffler,
Jordan Spieth,
Tom Kim,
Tyrrell Hatton,
Hideki Matsuyama and
Tom Hoge. Scheffler and Spieth are beloved Texans and will draw big crowds.
