The Valero Texas Open Field
This week serves as a tune up ahead of The Masters for some, for others, it’s a chance to qualify.
The winner of the Valero Texas Open (if not already qualified by other means) earns the final spot at The Masters… and a big bag of money.
Did you know?
The Texas Open is one of the longest running events in PGA Tour history, it’s been going since 1922, the same year CBS sports hired Verne Lundquist. 🥁
It also features this awesome thing called a “full field (156 golfers) and a cut.”
Speaking of, when will the PGA Tour give the people what they want, a live “cut watch” on Friday afternoons?
