The Valero Texas Open is one of the longest-running tournaments on the PGA Tour, dating all the way back to 1922. As of 2017, the event has been managed by Wasserman Media Group (I was a former intern!), and it has been played in the San Antonio area since inception. It is the longest-held PGA Tour event in the same city, and while the tournament has moved around to multiple venues in the greater San Antonio area, we have been coming to TPC San Antonio since 2009. In 2019, the tournament also moved to late March/early April and became a regular FedEx Cup event. For the past four years, it has been played the week before the Masters, and this will be our last look at Collin Morikawa, Ludvig Aberg, Patrick Cantlay, Tommy Fleetwood, Hideki Matsuyama, and two-time Valero champion Corey Conners, among others, before their trip down Magnolia Lane. While it will be fascinating to gauge the state of the top names, it’s worth noting that eight of the last 11 winners of the event directly preceding the Masters were not already qualified for the season’s first major.
