Tom Kim, ranked 30th, is a returning competitor for the third time. The Korean duo is accompanied by Ryan Fox from New Zealand, Hideki Matsuyama from Japan, Min Woo Lee from Australia, and Adam Scott from Australia.
Kim Si-woo has achieved the second-most top-10 finishes on the PGA Tour this season with 11, and leads the tour with 55 rounds in the 60s and 66 rounds under-par. Tom Kim secured his first PGA Tour title at the Genesis Scottish Open in July, marking his first victory since October 2023, and has produced four top-20 finishes in six tournaments since then.
