2025 RSM Classic Full Field: Crucial Final PGA Tour Event of Year

The fall finale is the last chance for players to get inside the top 100 and secure job status for 2026.

The official end of the PGA Tour year is here.

One week before Thanksgiving, a field of 156 is gathering at Sea Island Golf Club for the RSM Classic, where the available feast includes far more than the $7 million purse.

Come Sunday evening, only the top 100 in FedEx Cup points will be fully exempt for next season. Adam Schenk moved into the top 100 with his first Tour win last week at Bermuda, which means one less spot available to many this week who are hoping for one final push to secure jobs.

Karl Vilips holds down the 100th spot in points, 12 points ahead of Matt Wallace at No. 102 (Max Homa, at No. 101, is exempt by virtue of previous wins) and 13 ahead of Beau Hossler. Isaiah Salinda and David Lipsky are next in points, and all five of those players are in the field this week. Anything can happen; look no further than Schenk being 134th in points before Bermuda.

A year ago, Maverick McNealy got his breakthrough maiden win at the RSM Classic. And the three winners before him also were first-time victors: Ludvig Åberg, Adam Svensson and Talor Gooch.

There’s also a little star power in the field, being that the event is in Sea Island, Ga., where many Tour players reside. Ryder Cupper Harris English is playing, as is British Open champion Brian Harman. Davis Love III is the unofficial host and playing on a sponsor exemption.

Two courses are used the first two rounds, allowing for the big field—and allowing plenty of players one last chance to obtain 2026 status.
