The 144-player field competes in the ninth event of the 2024 PGA Tour season, with the tournament representing the start of the Florida Swing.
A cut is made after 36 holes to the top 65 players and ties. All players who finish four rounds of the tournament will earn money.
The prize-money payout is typically based on exactly 65 players making the cut and finishing the tournament. However, in PGA Tour events with a standard cut to the top 65 players and ties, the payout formula is adjusted to account for the exact number of players making the cut and will often include adding money to the stated purse to account for additional players.
The event is played this year at PGA National's Champion Course in Palm Beach Gardens, Fla.
This is the ninth PGA Tour event of the 2024 PGA Tour schedule.
What else is on the line: FedEx Cup points, OWGR points, exemptions
Beyond money, there are important points, perks and benefits on the line for the field -- in particular, the tournament winner.
The winner of this event earns 500 FedEx Cup points, as will be the case for standard events. The winner gets 51 Official World Golf Ranking points, with the points available based on field strength.
The champion will enjoy the benefits of winning PGA Tour event, including a two-year exemption on the PGA Tour and an exemption into next year's Masters, PGA Championship, The Players and The Sentry in 2025.
