The field has been confirmed for the penultimate event of the FedEx Cup Fall stage of the PGA Tour season, the Butterfield Bermuda Championship, and among it are golf influencers Wesley and George Bryan.

For Wesley, the event will be his fifth appearance in this season’s FedEx Cup Fall, having finished T13 at the Procore Championship, T37 at the Sanderson Farms Championship and T21 at the Black Desert Championship. He is also playing at this week’s World Wide Technology Championship at El Cardonal at Diamante Cabo San Lucas in Mexico.

He is battling for a place in the top 125 of the FedEx Cup standings at the end of the season which would see him earn exempt status into full field PGA Tour events in 2025 and a place in The Players Championship.

He is currently ranked 140^th having begun the FedEx Cup Fall stage of the season in 156^th. Bryan, whose one PGA Tour win so far came seven years ago at the RBC Heritage, will be confident of continuing his progress in Bermuda before the season concludes with the RSM Classic.

As for George, he is competing courtesy of a sponsor’s exemption in what will be just his third appearance on the PGA Tour. His first start on the circuit came at the 2023 tournament when he Monday qualified before finishing T69 as Wesley finished T37.

He made his second PGA Tour appearance in May’s Myrtle Beach Classic. He had been part of the field at qualifying event the Q at Myrtle Beach, and came within inches of achievening it before missing out to Matt Atkins in a playoff. Despite the disappointment, he made his way to the South Carolina tournament thanks to a sponsor’s invite, but failed to make the weekend’s action after missing the cut.

George also played in the inaugural Creator Classic before August’s Tour Championship, where he finished eighth of the 16-player field.
