After the conclusion of the Travelers Championship last week, the PGA Tour will now stop at Motor City for its next schedule. The Rocket Mortgage Classic is returning in 2021 and the tournament boasts a star-studded field this year. Here’s everything you need to know about tee times and featured groups ahead of Round 1 on Thursday. 

The third edition of the Rocket Mortgage Classic will be played at the Detroit Golf Club from July 1-4. The field has been locked in and defending champion Bryson DeChambeau will be put to a massive test this year. 

DeChambeau won the event in 2020 by overpowering the Detroit Golf Club. His powerful tee shots were heard all around and ‘The Scientist’ shot 23-under par for the tournament and won it by three strokes.
