Justin Thomas, J.T. Poston Lead Early Biltmore Field
By Staff Writer
Justin Thomas is among the early commitments to the PGA Tour's inaugural Biltmore Championship, which opens the 2026 FedEx Fall season at The Cliffs at Walnut Cove in Asheville, North Carolina, Sept. 17-20.
Thomas was named one of six U.S. captain's picks by Presidents Cup captain Brandt Snedeker this week, and the new event gives him a start before that competition. It will be his 18th tournament of the 2026 season.
J.T. Poston and Jacob Bridgeman have also committed to the field, along with Kevin Kisner, who will step away from the NBC broadcast booth to play. Tyler Watts, currently at Lahinch preparing for the Walker Cup, is among four players who will receive sponsor exemptions into the tournament.
The full field for the first Biltmore Championship is expected to be finalized within the next week.
