Players to Watch For
Defending Champion Returns - Scottie Scheffler
2022 was one of the best years by an individual, particularly Scottie Scheffler .
The American is starting to rile up and his form is making more and more sense as the season progresses.
Scheffler won this exact tournament in 2022, making it a home ground where he loves to play.
The support behind him will be more than ready, and Scheffler will thrive in the conditions where his driver is able to partake heavily.
Making putts as easy as possible, Scheffler believes he is another favourite for this year’s WGC event.
The final event by WGC as announced earlier on in the PGA season, this one will be one for the books.
Scheffler looks to defend his crown and make more ground on the top ranking between him and Jon Rahm.
He will be looking over his shoulder not only during this tournament, but through the rest of the year as well.
This tournament will be another battle between the world’s best and Scottie leads the pack as far as we’re concerned.
On Fire for Eternity - Jon Rahm
There’s no one hotter on the PGA Tour right now than Jon Rahm.
The Spanish beast and ASU grad has become a force to be reckoned with so quickly, and his play is finally translating to big time wins.
Rahm is clearly able to tee off with anyone and sink putts with the best of them, but there is no clear weakness in his game.
Rahm may have moments of inconsistency, but the past few tournaments have shown that he is much deeper than people may think.
Hitting some of the best putts on the run and narrowing down leads to finally capture his opponent at the last stages have been absolutely dramatic storylines for Rahm in 2023.
He looks to continue his fiery persona and red-hot form heading into WGC.
Legendary Lights - Rory Mcllroy
Rory Mcllroy hasn’t had the most gracious of starts to 2023, but the season is still young, and the big tournaments are just now starting to kick into full gear.
With the Masters in near sight, Rory will want to create more and more opportunities for himself to pick up some results on the fairways.
Mcllroy will be keen to show a good performance here, and in these conditions, he could be a top five or better participant, for sure.
