Rocket Classic in Detroit
Four former champions - Cameron Davis, Tony Finau, Rickie Fowler and Nate Lashley – have committed to return for the 7th-annual playing of Detroit’s PGA TOUR tournament scheduled for June 25-29 at Detroit Golf Club. They will be joined by World No. 4 and two-time major championship winner Collin Morikawa.
Davis became the only two-time winner of the Rocket Classic last year, following a 5-hole playoff he won in 2021. Lashley was the tournament’s inaugural winner in 2019. Fowler hoisted the trophy in 2023, while Finau coasted to a 5-stroke victory in 2022, setting the tournament record at 26-under par.
Bill Emerson, President of Rocket Companies and the Rocket Giving Fund, said, “Each of these players has left their mark on this tournament, and it’s a privilege to see them return to Detroit.”
Michigan State star Ashton McCollough has been given a sponsor’s exemption. It will be his second PGA Tour event because he played his way into last year’s Canadian Open after winning the Canadian Amateur the year prior. He will return to MSU for one more season after being out with an injury the past several months.
“We’re proud to stand behind the Spartans … and welcome Ashton to the Rocket Classic,” said Mark Hollis, Chief Operating Officer of Rock Entertainment Group. “Ashton earned his spot among the Big Ten’s best, and we can’t wait to see him make a potential run up the leaderboard at this summer’s tournament.”
The second round of tournament week will be Folds of Honor Friday, and on Saturday, all fans are encouraged to wear their favorite school colors, showcasing their allegiances to their alma maters or favorite teams as the tournament celebrates Collegiate Day – where students get almost one-third off the cost of their ticket purchased with a valid .edu email address.

Grounds tickets start at $65 per day, and up to four children age 15 and under are admitted free when accompanied by a ticketed adult. LendingTree Lounge and Club Ace shared hospitality passes start at $120 and $230, respectively.
