Chris Kirk, Tyler McCumber among field for King & Bear

The 156-player field for next week’s Korn Ferry Tour King & Bear Classic is set, with two notable additions who were not in the field at Dye’s Valley this week: Tyler McCumber of Ponte Vedra Beach, who has PGA Tour status and is not in the field for the RBC Heritage at Hilton Head Island, S.C., and four-time PGA Tour winner Chris Kirk.

The event will be held at World Golf Village in St Augustine, Florida.

McCumber qualified for the PGA Tour off his money list standing on the 2019 Korn Ferry Tour. Entering the Schwab Challenge in Fort Worth, he had made nine of 12 cuts this season.

Also playing at the King & Bear is past Tour winner Johnson Wagner. Mike Weir, an eight-time winner, did not enter.

The tournament will begin on Wednesday and conclude on Saturday, giving players an extra travel day to Utah for the next tournament on the Korn Ferry Tour schedule.
