Will Ludvig Åberg defend his title, or is it time for a new champion at RSM Classic?

The PGA Tour wraps up its fall series for the 2024 season with the 15th annual RSM Classic at the beautiful

Sea Island Golf Club. Played across both the Seaside and Plantation courses, this event on St. Simons Island, Georgia marks the eighth and final stop of the new FedExCup Fall. Swedish golfer Ludvig Åberg returns to defend his 2023 title, joined by fellow contenders such as Brian Harman, Sepp Straka, Denny McCarthy, J.T. Poston, and Chris Kirk.

The 2024 RSM Classic is scheduled to take place from November 21 to November 24 at the Sea Island Golf Course. A total of 150 players will be competing at the event to claim the trophy. If you already have your tickets booked for Georgia this weekend, you are in for a rather thrilling weekend. And if you cannot make it, you can still be a part of all the action. That too from the comfort of your home!

The 2024 RSM Classic will be streaming on Golf Channel, just like most other PGA Tour events through all four days. For the opening round and the second round, you can tune into the channel from 3:00 pm ET. However, the times will be different for the weekend. On Saturday and Sunday, the action will be streaming live on Golf Channel from 1:00 pm to 4:00 pm ET. If you want to be a part of the match in solitude, there is another option as well. You can download the NBC Sports App on your smartphone, and watch it all by yourself. The timings will remain the same as is on television.

This being the final fall event, a lot is at stake for the players who land at the top of the leaderboard after Sunday. Especially so for the winner.

What is the prize money for the 2024 RSM Classic?

The RSM Classic takes place at Sea Island Golf Club in Georgia, marking the conclusion of the FedEx Cup Fall and the final opportunity for players to secure one of the 125 full PGA Tour cards for the 2025 season. 150 players will be competing for the $7.6 million purse, and the winner will be taking home a whopping $1.368 million.

Additionally, players finishing between 126 and 150 in the FedEx Cup standings will get an exempt conditional status for the 2025 PGA Tour season. However, golfers finishing below 125, will be given another chance to improve and regain their status through the PGA Tour Q-school. So, who are you rooting for this weekend?
