The PGA Tour heads to McKinney, Texas, this week to honor the late Byron Nelson at his namesake event, which has been a staple on schedule for decades. While many of the game’s top names will be resting before next week’s PGA Championship at Oak Hill, a worthy crop of challengers, including Jordan Spieth, Scottie Scheffler, Tyrrell Hatton, Hideki Matsuyama, and Tom Kim, will all look to prevent K.H. Lee from winning his third consecutive title at TPC Craig Ranch.
This will be the third iteration of this event at the Tom Weiskopf design, which has failed to provide much of a pushback in its first two years as the host venue. K.H. Lee has triumphed at 25 and 26 under par in both occurrences, and birdies will once again be the currency this week in the Lone Star state.
