TPC San Antonio Golf Course Information

The TPC San Antonio Oaks golf course features narrow fairways and difficult green complexes, not to mention loads of large bunkers. The Oaks course is an intimate design with narrow corridors carved through oak trees with only 100 feet of fall from the highest point of the course to the lowest making it very walker friendly. The bunkers are spectacular and reflect a natural, rugged "minimalist" with edges emulating the canopy of the native oak trees. That's a stark difference to TPC San Antonio's AT&T Canyons course, which features much more severe terrain.

Valero Texas Open History

Established in 1922, the Valero Texas Open is steeped in PGA Tour history, with legends such as Walter Hagen, Byron Nelson, Sam Snead, Arnold Palmer, and Chi Chi Rodriguez winning the tournament in the past. More recently Justin Leonard has been the one to beat. Leonard won the Valero Texas Open back-to-back in 2000 and 2001, and then returned to the top of the podium in 2007.

The tournament featured the Tour's highest scoring average, 73.665, so far this year and Steele's 280 overall was the highest winning score at the Texas Open since a 283 won the 1934 edition.
