Dustin Johnson favourite at Tournament of Champions; Rory McIlroy declines spot
Strong 42-man lineup confirmed for the PGA Tour's first event of 2021...
Rory McIlroy may have declined his place at the Sentry Tournament of Champions in Hawaii next week, but the 2021 opener on the PGA Tour certainly won't lack for strength in depth.
World No.1 Dustin Johnson will tee up in his first competitive event since slipping on the famous Green Jacket at The Masters in November, and he will be joined at the head of the field by the likes of Justin Thomas, Xander Schauffele, Jon Rahm and Bryson DeChambeau.
