Matteo Manassero has returned to compete in the United States, participating in the Bank Of Utah Championship, taking place from October 23 to 26 at the Black Desert Resort in Ivins, Utah. Alongside him is fellow Italian golfer Francesco Molinari, both in search of crucial points to maintain their “cards” on the PGA Tour for 2026. The tournament boasts a total prize fund of $6,000,000, with $1,080,000 allocated to the winner, making this competition essential for players aiming to secure their place on the American circuit for the following year. Currently, Manassero and Molinari are positioned 158th and 203rd respectively in the FedEx Cup standings, and they aim to climb the rankings in a tournament that will feature five players from the top 50 in the world rankings and seven winners of PGA events from 2025. Among them, defending champion Matt McCarty will be vying to retain his title while the two Italians look to improve their performances; after the first round, Molinari is at -3 strokes while Manassero is currently at +2.
