William Mouw

William Mouw is greeted by fans after shooting a course record 61 at Hurstbourne Country Club on his way to winning the ISCO Championship.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) — Max Homa has six PGA TOUR victories. Lucas Glover owns a U.S. Open title and enters the weekend atop the leaderboard at the John Deere Classic. William Mouw returns as the defending champion.

Those three headline the 144-player field released Friday for next week's ISCO Championship at Hurstbourne Country Club.

The tournament, which runs July 9-12, features a mix of established PGA TOUR winners, rising young stars and international players competing for a $4 million purse, a $720,000 winner's check and 300 FedExCup points.

Homa, a six-time winner on the PGA Tour and one-time world No. 5, is the marquee attraction as he tries to rediscover the form that made him one of the game's most popular players. Glover, the 2009 U.S. Open champion, could arrive in Louisville with momentum after taking a two-shot lead into the weekend at the John Deere Classic.

Mouw returns hoping to defend the title he won at Hurstbourne last summer, when he broke through for the first victory of his career.

The field also includes the reigning NCAA individual champion. Preston Stout, the Oklahoma State junior who last month became the Cowboys' first national champion since Matthew Wolff in 2019, received one of the tournament's sponsor exemptions. Stout is also playing this week's John Deere Classic on an exemption.

He joins a strong collection of young talent that includes Jackson Koivun, who earned PGA TOUR membership after a historic freshman season at Auburn, teenage standout Miles Russell, former world No. 1 amateur Gordon Sargent and Duke All-American Ben James.

Veteran fan favorites Joel Dahmen and Harry Higgs are also in the field, along with past tour winners Emiliano Grillo, Tom Hoge, Mackenzie Hughes, Patton Kizzire and Stephan Jaeger, and more than 40 players who qualified through the DP World Tour.

Played opposite the Genesis Scottish Open, the ISCO Championship offers players another opportunity to earn valuable FedExCup points as the race to retain PGA TOUR status enters its final months.

Tournament play begins Thursday.
