The Valero Texas Open will take place at The Oaks Course at TPC San Antonio for the 15th consecutive year, marking the conclusion of the PGA Tour`s Texas swing. Following Min Woo Lee`s victory at the Texas Children`s Houston Open, where he outperformed Scottie Scheffler and Gary Woodland, a fresh group of 156 players will compete in San Antonio. This tournament represents the last opportunity for golfers to qualify for the Masters Tournament. Only the winner, if not already exempt, will secure a spot in the first major of the year.
Last year, Akshay Bhatia emerged victorious in a playoff against Denny McCarthy in San Antonio. Both players are returning to compete for the title once again. Bhatia will be competing for the first time since his third-place tie at the Players Championship on March 17. McCarthy is seeking a breakthrough win after achieving five top-20 finishes this season. Corey Conners is a two-time Valero Texas Open champion, having won in 2019 and 2023. The tournament features a total prize pool of $9.5 million, with the winner receiving $1,710,000.
