Min Woo Lee returns to defend his title after a three-stroke victory over Rikuya Hoshino in 2023.
Past major winners who will tee off on Thursday include Jason Day, Cameron Smith and Geoff Ogilvy.
These are our four selections that could win the championship this weekend.

Jason Day
Jason Day has been in decent nick on the PGA Tour recently, finishing T23 at the John Deere Classic, T13 at the Open Championship, T9 at the Paris Olympics, T22 at the FedEx St. Jude Championship and T33 at the BMW Championship.
