Win and you’re in. That’s what is on the line for many players this week at the 2023 Texas Open. Representing the last opportunity to earn an invitation into the 2023 Masters, the Texas Open will welcome an eclectic bunch ranging from PGA Tour veterans, rookies and those aiming to peak next week at Augusta National.
Despite his absence in Augusta, Georgia, the last two seasons, Rickie Fowler remains at the top of everyone’s minds. The five-time PGA Tour winner is in the midst of a resurgent beginning to his 2023. Fowler has collected six top-20 finishes already this season including a runner-up at the Zozo Championship as well as close calls at the Farmers Insurance Open and WM Phoenix Open. Fowler ranks 14th in strokes gained total over the last three months ahead of the likes of Justin Thomas, Jordan Spieth and Sam Burns
Yet for Fowler to gain entry into the Masters, he will have to do something he hasn’t done in four years: win. He is not alone in these aspirations as veteran Matt Kuchar, defending champion J.J. Spaun and Rookie of the Year candidate Taylor Montgomery are among the masses hoping to catch lightning in a bottle for four days at TPC San Antonio.
Former Masters champion Hideki Matsuyama looks to get right after withdrawing from the WGC-Dell Match Play while Tyrrell Hatton, Corey Conners, Si Woo Kim and Chris Kirk highlight those already in the field for next week.
