The Memorial Tournament is being played at Muirfield Village in Dublin, Ohio. How many of the PGA Tour’s money leaders in in the field?
—
The PGA Tour’s leading earner is the only player keeping it from being perfect attendance in The Memorial field for players among the top 30.
Rory McIlroy, who heads the money list with nearly $14 million, is opting out of the Tour’s Signature Event, which begins on May 29 at the Muirfield Village Golf Club in Dublin, Ohio. He presumably will make his next start in the U.S. Open at Oakmont June 12-15.
