KUALA LUMPUR: CIMB Group announced the final PGA TOUR field for the US$7 million CIMB Classic on Thursday, with Major champions Ernie Els, Keegan Bradley and Jason Dufner among those confirming their appearances.
Japanese star Ryo Ishikawa and the popular Englishman Luke Donald will also feature at the Kuala Lumpur Golf & Country Club alongside PGA TOUR rookie of the year Daniel Berger, two-time CIMB Classic runner-up Gary Woodland and past champions Nick Watney and Ben Crane.
They complete the 2015 line-up that is headlined by the trio of Henrik Stenson, Sergio Garcia and Adam Scott.
The top-ten available players from the Asian Tour Order of Merit after this week’s UBS Hong Kong Open will also earn starts in the sixth edition of the Classic.
On the domestic front, Danny Chia will make his fourth appearance at the prestigious tournament as the highest ranked Malaysian on the Official World Golf Ranking as of September 30, 2015.
