Who’s in the field at the 2023 John Deere Classic at TPC Deere Run?

Considering its placement on the PGA Tour schedule, it’s not a surprise to see most of the best players in the world taking a pass on playing in the 2023 John Deere Classic next week.

In the final event before heading across the pond for two weeks, including the Open Championship at Royal Liverpool, TPC Deere Run in Silvis, Illinois, hosts the John Deere Classic, a staple on the Tour’s schedule since 1971.

Defending champion J.T. Poston will be there. So will 2023 U.S. Ryder Cup captain Zach Johnson, who’s from neighboring Iowa. Nick Taylor, who won the RBC Canadian Open, Denny McCarthy and Matt Kuchar will also tee it up.

Most of the top players in the world, however, are skipping the event before heading to Europe. That means there are plenty of opportunities for someone to grab a life-changing victory in the Quad Cities.
