Mickelson, who is one of the undisputable greats of the game with 32 wins on tour, including The Masters and PGA Championship, returns to his hometown for this exciting tournament. Chopra, who secured his first PGA TOUR victory recently at the Ginn Sur Mer Classic, continues his steady and exciting climb upward in popularity and the Official World Golf Rankings. Wetterich, U.S. team Ryder Cupper, finished 27th in the 2007 FedEx Cup rankings and has ranked in the top 10 in the PGA TOUR's money list.
