How much prize money does the winner get at the Texas Children’s Houston Open

The 2025 Texas Children’s Houston Open is back underway with the tournament suffering multiple shifts in the PGA Tour schedule in recent years with no Houston Open golf being played in 2023.

For this year’s event, both World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler and No. 2 Rory McIlroy are in action in Texas.

McIlroy will make his first appearance at the event since 2014, long before it was moved to Memorial Park Golf Course. It will serve as the Northern Irishman’s Masters tune-up rather than next week’s Valero Texas Open in San Antonio.

“I’ve watched this tournament the last couple years, especially since it moved to this date instead of the fall, and felt like it was a golf course that would be right up my alley and would suit my game and suit my style of play,” said McIlroy.

U.S. Open champion Wyndham Clark, 2022 Houston Open winner Tony Finau and South Korea’s Sungjae Im are the other high profile stars looking to impress in Houston.

A Texas native, Scheffler has played the Houston Open each of the past four years. He tied for second last year and in the fall of 2021.
