• Last chance saloon at Houston Open

    Russell Henley
    Henley sealed his ticket to Augusta '17 with a win

    A star-studded field heads to Houston this week with 76 past PGA Tour winners among the field at the 2018 Houston Open.

    The Houston Open is contested at the Golf Club of Houston, near Humble, Texas and offers the last chance to a player not yet in The Masters field to get to Augusta with a win.

    That was the case for Russell Henley last year as he racked up 10 birdies and shot a 65 to win for the third time on the PGA Tour.

    This year Ernie Els leads six South Africans in the field with Tyrone van Aswegen, Rory Sabbatini, Dawie van der Walt, Retief Goosen all looking to join Masters-bound Dylan Frittelli at the year’s first Major with a win.

    Standing in their way are a number of high-profile, already qualified stars like Phil Mickelson, Justin Rose and Rickie Fowler.
