Masters champ Angel Cabrera, U.S. Open winner Lucas Glover, British Open champ Stewart Cink and PGA Championship winner Y.E. Yang will all be playing in this event.

He is in the field along with 2007 golf betting winner Paul Goydos, 2008 winner K.J. Choi and last year’s winner Zach Johnson.
Another player that will attract attention from the fans although probably not from those that bet on golf is John Daly. He received a sponsor’s exemption to play in the Sony Open.
