최근 발표된 2026 플레이어스 챔피언십 123명 선수 필드—디펜딩 챔피언 로리 매킬로이, 2회 우승자 스코티 셰플러, 7명의 과거 챔피언 포함—를 기반으로 잉글랜드 골퍼 마르코 펜지가 지난 5개 대회를 결장한 후 주목할 만한 컴백을 준비 중이다. 펜지는 최근 10경기에서 톱20 2회를 기록한 괜찮은 최근 폼으로 출전한다. 제네시스 스코티시 오픈(13언더) T2가 하이라이트다. 지난 5경기 평균 Strokes Gained: Off-the-Tee 0.571을 기록했으나 SG: Approach -0.596과 SG: Total -0.585에서 고전 중이다. 시즌 통계에서는 티샷 강점(SG: Off-the-Tee 0.728, 3위; 드라이빙 거리 316.8야드, 11위)을 보이지만 다른 영역 약점: SG: Approach -0.760(150위), GIR 64.81%(150위), SG: Putting -0.538(147위), 29.92 퍼트/라운드(158위), bogey avoidance 19.44%(166위). FedExCup 포인트 98위(76포인트 획득, 토너먼트 주 기준). 한편 2021 챔피언 저스틴 토마스는 최근 아놀드 팔머 인비테이셔널 성적을 되새기며 필드 톱 컨텐더들 사이 강한 활약을 노린다.
