The Golf Club of Houston in Humble, Texas will host the Shell Houston Open from March 30 up to April 2. This is the last tune-up tournament before the Masters which will be held on April 6-9 at the Augusta National Golf Club in Augusta, GA.
The tournament course of the Golf Club in Houston will be used for the Shell Houston Open. This 18-hole Par 72 course has 7,457 yards in length was designed by Rees Jones and David Toms. It was built across a wooded landscape combined with natural lakes and wetlands.
Last year, defending champion Jim Herman won his first PGA Tour title after a one-shot lead over Henrik Stenson. It was a last gap win that secured him a last-minute slot at the Masters.
Texas native and World No. 6 Jordan Spieth will be playing close at home and he will be joined by fellow Top 10 golfers No. 5 Henrik Stenson, No. 8 Adam Scott and No. 9 Rickie Fowler. Opening the first round of the Shell Houston will be the trio of Ken Duke, Boo Weekley and Robert Allenby at 7:30AM local time.
The sportsbook handicappers have installed Jordan Spieth the man to beat in the 4-day Shell Houston Open. John Rahm and Henrik Stenson are among his strongest challengers throughout the tournament.
