After a week in East Asia for the Zozo Championship, a tournament eventually won by Keegan Bradley, the PGA Tour is back stateside for the 2022 CJ Cup at Congaree Golf Club in Ridgeland, South Carolina.
World No. 2 Rory McIlroy is the defending champion and betting favorite (+700), although he won at Shadow Creek in Las Vegas last season.
The field consists of 78 players, including 15 of the world’s top 20, and there will be no 36-hole cut Friday afternoon.
Congaree Golf Club is a par-71 track that will measure 7,655 yards.
Here are some of the best photos from the week at the CJ Cup.
