The PGA Tour heads to Texas this week for the Texas Children’s Houston Open, one of the last stops before the golf world descends on Augusta National. While it’s easy to look ahead, there’s a decent field in Houston this week for golfers trying to prepare for the first major championship in 2026.

Min Woo Lee will look to defend what was his maiden Tour victory this week, and both Chris Gotterup and Sahith Theegala are also in the field. Brooks Koepka, who has been playing better recently after his return from LIV Golf, will also tee up. Koepka has three consecutive top-20 finishes, including last week’s T18 race at the Valspar Championship.
Scottie Scheffler was set to compete this week, but withdrew Tuesday morning due to the birth of his second child. As for reasons for the world’s top-ranked golfer to withdraw from an event, that has to be at the top of the list.
Here’s everything you need to know and how much money is at stake this week in Houston.
