It does seem strange

Two short list PGA tournaments in a row has left some professionals off the list.
Arnie's show at Bay Hill, and now the CA World at Doral (74 players) both had short fields and golfers who are in the top 70 aren't playing?

It's as if the PGA Tour is building an "elite" tournament schedule and a second level of "Those who Also played but somewhere else".

Sometimes I think it might be wise to go back to the Monday (or even on Tuesday) Qualifier rounds for everyone!

I would have liked to watch a full field at Doral - which could be for some the last chance to qualify for the Masters. The dramatic effects of that would have been great TV.

Because of these two short field player lists, some good ones aren't going to be at the Masters.
