The 2025 Truist Championship is set to bring some of the biggest names in professional golf to the Philadelphia Cricket Club's Wissahickon Course this week.

Typically played at the Quail Hollow Club in Charlotte, North Carolina, the PGA Tour signature event moved to the historic Philadelphia-area venue in 2025 because Quail Hollow is hosting the PGA Championship from May 12-18.

Play kicks off on Wednesday, May 7, with the Truist Championship Pro-Am before the first official round of competition starts on Thursday. The fourth and final round will be on Sunday, May 11. The third and fourth rounds will be broadcast on CBS News Philadelphia and Paramount+.

Here's a look at which players, and past Truist Championship winners, are slated to play in this year's tournament.
