Full field of golfers released for second annual Grant Thornton Invitational in Naples

Next month, 16 players from both the PGA Tour and LPGA will come together for the 2024 Grant Thornton Invitational at Tiburon Golf Club in Naples, Florida. Two-person teams will compete over three days with each round consisting of a different format.

Friday will be a scramble, Saturday will be foursomes (alternate shot) and Sunday will be modified four-ball. Sunday’s session is unique as both players will tee off and then switch balls for their second shots. They’ll then finish out the hole and the lowest score between the two players will count for the team.

Some of the biggest names in the sport are in the field including Nelly Korda, Lilia Vu, Lydia Ko, Rose Zhang, Rickie Fowler, Tony Finau, Sahith Theegala and Tom Kim.

Defending champions Lydia Ko and Jason Day are hoping to go back-to-back.

The tournament is slated for Dec. 13-15.

Here are the 16 teams for the Grant Thornton Invitational, including the world rank of each LPGA and PGA Tour player.
