The PGA Tour has made it to the mainland after two weeks in Hawaii for the American Express at PGA West in La Quinta, California.
Three courses will be used for the first three rounds — Pete Dye’s PGA West Stadium Course, PGA West’s Nicklaus Tournament Course and La Quinta Country Club — before a 54-hole cut is made and the final round is played at the Stadium Course.
Reigning champion Jon Rahm is not in the field because of his move to LIV Golf.
World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler is joined in the field by Xander Schauffele, Patrick Cantlay, Justin Thomas, Tom Kim, Sam Burns and Jason Day, among others.
Here are some of the best photos from the American Express.
