The PGA Tour season rolls on to Texas after a wild week at the PGA Championship saw Aaron Rai emerge as a surprising major winner. The annual Texas two-step after the second major of the year begins with the CJ Cup Byron Nelson at TPC Craig Ranch, where Scottie Scheffler led the field as the heavy favorite to go back-to-back.
Last year, Scheffler lapped the rest of the contenders to win by eight shots, finishing at an outrageous 31 under for the week to capture his first Byron Nelson win. This year’s tournament is not playing much tougher as Scheffler entered the final round just two shots back of 54-hole leader Si Woo Kim, who began the day at 21 under. Kim shot the low round of the week with a 60 on Friday, and it is anticipated that he pulls through with the victory, considering how hot he started Sunday.
Also in the field this week was fellow Texas native Jordan Spieth, who was still in search of his first win on the PGA Tour since 2022. Brooks Koepka was the other headliner, as he continues trying to claw his way up the rankings to earn a spot in one of the final two signature events of the season and reclaim his spot among the Tour’s best. Koepka started with a 63 — easily his best round of the season — but has fallen back a bit as the tournament progressed.
Fireworks are a given this week, and the task for everyone in the field will be to keep it low Sunday. The winning score in each of the last seven years has been at least 23 under, as the players will get the green light all week after having to play extremely conservative golf at the PGA Championship.
Here’s how you can watch Scheffler, Spieth, Koepka and the rest battle it out in McKinney, Texas.
