The PGA Tour heads back to Sea Island Golf Club in St. Simons Island, Georgia, this week for its fall finale, the RSM Classic. A total of 10 2025 tour winners highlight the 156-player field, including World No. 13 Harris English (2025 Farmers Insurance Open champion) and World No. 32 Brian Harman (2025 Valero Texas Open champion), who are both Sea Island residents.

The field will compete for a share of a $7 million purse. It's also the last chance for players to earn or improve their status for next season, as the top 100 in the FedEx Cup points standings earn full exempt status.
