Reigning U.S. Open champion J.J. Spaun, three-time PGA Tour winner Ben Griffin and two-time major champion Collin Morikawa headlined the latest additions for the 2026 WM Phoenix Open as the full field was released.

They join previously committed Scottie Scheffler, Brooks Koepka, Hideki Matsuyama, Rickie Fowler and Xander Schauffele.

Spaun, a Scottsdale resident, won last year’s U.S. Open on a 64.5-foot birdie putt that gave him a two-shot victory over Robert MacIntyre. He entered the tournament as a +20,000 longshot to win.

Griffin won all three of his PGA Tour events in 2025. Morikawa has six PGA Tour wins but none since 2023, and his two major wins came in 2020 and 2021.

Except for 2025 WM Phoenix Open champion Thomas Detry (who joined LIV Golf in January), the previous decade’s worth of champions will be back at TPC Scottsdale.

The full field includes 119 golfers as of Tuesday. The most notable participants are Scheffler (2022 and 2023 champion) and Koepka (2015 and 2021 champion, making the move back to the PGA Tour from LIV Golf).

The top-10 Official World Golf Ranking participants are Scheffler (No. 1), Schauffele (No. 6), Spaun (No. 7) and Griffin (No. 8).

The 2026 WM Phoenix Open begins on Feb. 5 and will crown a winner on Feb. 8.

The Annexus Pro-Am will take place on Feb. 4 and will feature multiple Arizona Cardinals, including franchise legend Larry Fitzgerald.
