The Memorial Tournament 2025 power rankings: Scottie Scheffler still on top?

The Memorial Tournament 2025 is set to tee off on Thursday, May 29 at the Muirfield Village Golf Club in Dublin, Ohio. The Jack Nicklaus-hosted event is PGA Tour’s latest Signature Event on the schedule and falls two weeks ahead of the US Open. Owing to this, the competition will feature a stacked field, headlined by World No.1 and event’s defending champion Scottie Scheffler.

Unsurprisingly, the reigning PGA Championship winner is also the favorites to win the Memorial Tournament. According to PGA Tour, the ace golfer leads the power rankings by a large margin, beating the likes of World No. 3 Xander Schauffele and No. 4 Collin Morikawa. Coming off the T4 finish at the Charles Schwab Challenge, the 28-year-old will be eyeing a big comeback at Muirfield.

Sepp Straka follows the event favorite on PGA Tour’s power rankings. The Austrian golfer has recorded two wins this season, including the circuit’s last Signature Event at the Truist Championship. The 32-year-old has managed 10 top 15s so far and is a big pick for the weekend.

Meanwhile, Shane Lowry follows him on the table. Having missed the cut at the PGA Championship, the Irishman, who has three top 20s at Memorial, is deemed a solid pick to make a comeback performance at the Ohio event. Corey Conners, Patrick Cantlay, Matt Fitzpatrick and Sam Burns are other names on the top 10 list. Interestingly, last week’s Charles Schwab Challenge winner Ben Griffin sits 15th on the power rankings.
