The Texas Children’s Houston Open is back as another stop on the PGA Tour schedule, and it will take place this Thursday, March 26th through Sunday, March 29th. The tournament will once again be held at Memorial Park Golf Course in Houston, Texas.
This year’s field includes plenty of big names, including Texas native and World #1 golfer Scottie Scheffler. In addition to Scheffler, players like Rickie Fowler, Shane Lowry, Brooks Koepka, Sam Burns, Cameron Young, and Tony Finau.
Last year’s event was won by Min Woo Lee, who narrowly held off Scheffler and Gary Woodland by one shot each. Lee will be back this year to defend his title. Sheffler has pulled off runner-up finishes in back-to-back years at the tournament.
In total, four of the world’s top 20 players will be in H-Town, including Scheffler, Chris Gotterup (#10), Ben Griffin (#16), and Harris English (#20).
