2022 Fortinet Australian PGA Championship: Field, prize money and more

After a three-year hiatus, the Fortinet Australian PGA Championship is back. The event, which is returning to the DP World Tour schedule, will be held from November 24 to 27 at the Royal Queensland Golf Club in Brisbane, Australia.

The event will be held by the DP World Tour in association with the ISPS HANDA PGA Tour of Australasia. The event was last held as part of the then- European Tour schedule in 2019. Former World No.1 and Australian golfer Adam Scott had won the event for the second time back then.

2022 Fortinet Australian PGA Championship field

Interestingly, the 2022 Fortinet Australian PGA Championship stands out this year as it allows LIV golfers to participate. The field for the DP World Tour event is being headlined by LIV golf Boston champion Cameron Smith.

Adam Scott, Ryan Fox and Jediah Morgan are other big names on the 156-player field for the event, which will be the second of the 2022-2023 DP World Tour schedule.

Scott will look to put forth a strong performance and go for a hat-trick of wins this weekend. However, Smith comes in as the favorite to win. The World No. 3 had a solid finish at the LIV Golf team championship event in Miami and will be looking to replicate the form. Marc Leishman is another rebel series player on the field.
