PALM BEACH GARDENS, Fla. — South Florida resident Gary Woodland is joining the Honda Classic field.

Honda Classic spokesman Gary Ferman said Friday that Jim Furyk, Adam Scott and Zach Johnson have also committed to play at PGA National later this month.

Furyk, who lives a few hours north in Ponte Vedra Beach, has won 28 tour events since 1994, including the 2003 U.S. Open.

Scott, who is the world's 24th-ranked golfer, won the Honda Classic in 2016.
