The Valero Texas Open 2025 is set to tee off on Thursday, April 3, at TPC San Antonio in San Antonio, Texas. The 15th event on the PGA Tour schedule will see a stacked 152-player field compete for the winner’s paycheck from the $9,500,000 prize purse.
The Texas Open is the final event on the PGA golf calendar ahead of The Masters. Owing to this, several big-name stars, including World No.1 Scottie Scheffler and No.2 Rory McIlroy, have opted to sit out the contest. Despite this, the event still features 16 of the top 50 in the Official World Golf Ranking among the top contenders, headlined by No.5 Ludvig Aberg and No.6 Hideki Matsuyama.
Aberg enters the event after taking a short break following a missed cut at The Players. The Genesis Invitational champion is one of the favorites to clinch the silverware in Texas this week. Interestingly, his rival, Matsuyama, comes from the same background. The Japanese golfer started off the 2025 season with a win at The Sentry, which remains his best result so far.
