Scottie Scheffler and Rory McIlroy, ranked 1 and 2 in the Official World Golf Ranking, are committed to the 2025 Texas Children’s Houston Open.
With the Valspar Championship concluding in Florida on Sunday, Texas will next host back-to-back PGA Tour stops, the final two tournaments before the Masters.
Scheffler has two second-place ties and a tie for ninth in his last three visits to Houston.
McIlroy, who won the Players Championship in a Monday finish six days ago, is back in action after a week off. He’ll make his first appearance in Houston in 11 years.
Also committed to the event are Jason Day and Tony Finau in the 156-player field.
There are four spots open from the Monday qualifier. The seven sponsor exemptions went to Bronson Burgoon, Padraig Harrington, Zach Johnson, Noah Kent (a), Hayden Springer, Jimmy Walker and Kyle Westmoreland.
Memorial Park Golf Course will play as a par 70 and measure 7,475 yards. The total purse is $9,500,000 with the winner earning $1,710,000.
