The PGA Tour wraps up its Asian swing this week with the WGC-HSBC Champions, the first of four World Golf Championships on the schedule. It’s played in Shanghai, China at Sheshan International Golf Club, which has hosted the event 14 of the 15 times it’s been played.
While Tiger Woods won’t be in the field, there’s still plenty of star power. Thirty-four of the top 50 players in the world will tee it up, including three of the top 10. Rory McIlroy, defending champion Xander Schauffele and Justin Rose are among the marquee groupings. Tony Finau, who finished runner-up to Schauffele a year ago, will play alongside Bernd Wiesberger and reigning Open champion Shane Lowry.
TV Schedule
The Golf Channel will carry live coverage Wednesday and Thursday from 10 p.m. to 4 a.m. ET, as well as Friday and Saturday from 11 p.m. to 4 a.m. ET.
