The field for the 2024 PGA Championship was revealed on Tuesday, and there will be multiple stars competing at Valhalla Golf Club when the tournament takes place from May 16-19.

Past winners Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy headline the talented field along with reigning PGA Championship winner Brooks Koepka. The entire field can be found here.

The field at the 2024 PGA Championship will include 16 previous winners of the tournament and 33 major champions. There are still two spots available for the winners of this week's Wells Fargo Championship and Myrtle Beach Classic.

This will be the fourth time that the PGA Championship is played at Valhalla, and that bodes well for the veterans. The last two PGA Championships held at Valhalla were won by Woods (2000) and McIlroy (2014). Woods reportedly plans to visit Valhalla prior to the tournament to scout the course.

Woods is a four-time PGA Championship winner, most recently winning the tournament in 2007. His participation in this year's event, which is just his third competitive tournament of 2024, is part of his plan to play once a month while he works through the physical limitations that have plagued him since his devastating car crash in 2021.

"I have the next three months--three majors--and hopefully that works out," Woods said earlier this month.

The 48-year-old has already accepted a special exemption to play in the 2024 U.S. Open, which will be held at the Pinehurst Resort and Country Club in North Carolina on June 13-16. He is also hoping to play the British Open at Royal Troon in Scotland in July.

If Woods can achieve his goal, it will be his first time playing in all four majors since 2019.
