Below is a list of the PGA TOUR members in the field at The RSM Classic, along with their exempt status for 2026 and the minimum finish they need to have a chance to move into the top 100 in the FedExCup Fall Points List.
NOTE: Players in need of a win to move into the top 100 are listed as N/A because they would earn a two-year exemption with the victory. Players with "TBD" under exempt status may be eligible in 2026 via another category, such as Career Money or a Major Medical Extension.
