Valero Texas Open 98


                             This Week it is the Valero

 

 

 

 

Held at the TPC San Antonio

7435 Yards  Par 72

 

 

 

 

The Defending Champion is Brian Harman

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

In the TH our Champion was EMC

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

First played in 1922, where Bob McDonald was champion and took home a $1,633 winner’s check.  How do you suppose they came up with that amount for first prize?  Over 100 years old . . . this is the sixth oldest event on the PGA tour.  Also the week before the Masters, so the field will be a lot of hungry golfers looking for a spot at the grown up table.

 

 

 

 

FUN FACT:  Bob was a very well known golf instructor with a number of HoF clients.  He was also a veteran of the Second Boer War . . .  which probably goes on the CV under . . .  ‘Other’
