We get more middle-of-the-night golf this week after last week's event in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. This week, the PGA Tour heads to Shanghai, China, and the tournament field is actually worth waking up for.

Rory McIlroy, Dustin Johnson, Rickie Fowler and Bubba Watson headline an elite field at this week's HSBC Champions. The field is actually quite small (78 golfers) and does not involve a cut so everyone makes money. McIlroy said on Wednesday that's a bigger deal than you might think.

"You don't really have that pressure of trying to play your way into a tournament," said McIlroy. "It's a four-round tournament. You know you're getting four rounds so you've got plenty of time to make birdies and play well. And I think just from the get-go, you don't quite feel the pressure.

"Even though you shouldn't really be thinking about the cut or anything like that, but it is a little bit of a mental thing. It takes the weight off you you, and you can go and play just that little bit freer."

Here's a look at the schedule of events so you can watch all the action. (Updates will be made as weather dictates.)
