The PGA TOUR heads to Silvis, Illinois, for the 53rd playing of the John Deere Classic. Players return to TPC Deere Run, the 7,257-yard par 71 that has played host since 2000. Former PGA TOUR Commissioner Deane Beman won the first two editions of the event in 1971 and 1972. Jordan Spieth returns as a two-time past champion. At just age 19, Spieth became the first teenager to win on TOUR since 1931 with his maiden win in 2013 here. Other past champions in the field include 2023 winner Sepp Straka, J.T. Poston (2022) and Lucas Glover (2021).

The PGA TOUR uses a standardized system for determining event fields based on the current season’s Priority Ranking while also including additional exemption and qualifying categories.

Field sizes can vary by event, as can the number of event-specific exemptions. Fully exempt PGA TOUR members are guaranteed entry into all full-field events, with various conditional categories subject to periodic reshuffles based upon FedExCup Points accrued throughout the season. Categories with "reshuffle" notation indicate that a reshuffle period has occurred.

Note: An additional year of eligibility was granted to some categories because of the COVID-19 pandemic.
