Valero Texas Open at TPC San Antonio
The Oaks course was designed by Greg Norman and with a player consultant by Sergio Garcia. The Oaks course reflects the TOUR’s departure from the modern tournament-style course (expansive grass areas and spectator mounding) to a more natural look and feel, without sacrificing the fan experience, making it tournament-friendly. The Oaks course will host the PGA TOUR’s Valero Texas Open from April 3 – 6, 2025.
The 2025 edition of the Valero Texas Open, will return to TPC San Antonio’s Oaks course for the 16th year. This will be the seventh year of a 10-year contract extension between the PGA TOUR and Valero Energy Corporation; a deal which positions the tournament in a coveted slot on the TOUR schedule– the week preceding the Masters Tournament.
ABOUT THE VALERO TEXAS OPEN
The Valero Texas Open, first played in 1922, is the 3rd oldest PGA TOUR tournament. It’s only younger than the Western Open (1899) and Canadian Open (1904). If you include the U.S. Open (1895) managed by the USGA, and the PGA Championship (1916) managed by the PGA of America, then the Valero Texas Open is the sixth oldest professional tournament worldwide. The Valero Texas Open is the oldest professional golf tournament to be held in the same city. In 2022, the Valero Texas Open celebrated its 100th anniversary.
Its list of champions includes some of the greatest names in golf history: Walter Hagen, Byron Nelson, Ben Hogan, Sam Snead, Arnold Palmer, Ben Crenshaw, Hale Irwin, Lee Trevino, Nick Price, Justin Leonard, Zach Johnson, Adam Scott, Jimmy Walker, and Jordan Spieth, and 2024 champion Akshay Bhatia to name a few.
Since Valero became the title sponsor in 2002, the Valero Texas Open has always been driven by its charitable mission – in 2015, the tournament raised $10.4 million for charity, making it proud yet humbled to become only the fourth PGA TOUR event to eclipse the $100 Million milestone in funds raised for charity. The Valero Texas Open, together with its Benefit for
Children and Champions fore Charity initiatives have contributed more than $256 million to hundreds of worthy charities since inception. Please visit www.ValeroTexasOpen.com and follow on Facebook, X, and Instagram (@ValeroTXOpen) for more information.
