Japanese standout Jinichiro Kozuma brings additional Asian presence to a field that features former PGA champions Bubba Watson, Charl Schwartzel, Patrick Reed, and Louis Oosthuizen.
Dean Burmester and Marc Leishman are the latest names added to an already loaded field for the International Series Philippines next month at Sta. Elena Golf Club.
Burmester finished second at LIV Golf Hong Kong in March behind eventual champion Sergio Garcia and tied for fourth in Saudi Arabia.
Along with Stinger GC, he currently sits third in the team standings behind leaders Legion XIII and Crushers GC.
Leishman, representing the all-Australian Ripper GC, enters fresh off a superb season highlighted by both an individual and team victory in Miami, plus five other top-15 finishes.
Richard Bland of Cleeks GC, a two-time senior major champion, will also be in the mix after notching six top-15 results this season on the LIV Golf tour.
The field will also feature Asian representation through Iron Heads GC standout Jinichiro Kozuma, who finished runner-up in Dallas last June, and Zimbabwe’s Scott Vincent, who captured the International Series Morocco title last July.
Thailand’s Danthai Boonma and last year’s Asian Tour Order of Merit winner John Catlin are likewise confirmed to compete.
They join an earlier-announced group of stars that includes former Masters champions Bubba Watson, Charl Schwartzel and Patrick Reed, along with 2010 British Open champion Louis Oosthuizen.
Miguel Tabuena is the lone Filipino confirmed so far.
