Hold Your Horses, Partner! No PGA Tournaments in Austin... Right Now
Howdy, golf fans! You there, with the perfectly ironed polo and the divot repair tool clipped to your belt? You must be itching to catch some PGA action in the live music capital of the world, Austin, Texas. Well, simmer down those golf cart tires, because there ain't a single PGA tournament teeing off in Austin as we speak.
Don't Pack Your Clubs Away Just Yet Though!
Hold on a sec, don't go tossing your Titleist collection in the attic just yet. Austin and the PGA Tour have a history as deep as a Texas two-step. The prestigious World Golf Championships-Dell Technologies Match Play calls Austin Country Club its home course. This ain't your average tournament, folks. It features the top 64 golfers in the world going head-to-head in a bracketed match-play format, making it as thrilling as a Willie Nelson concert with pyrotechnics.
But Why No Match Play This May?
Now, you might be scratching your head wondering why there's no PGA glitz and glamour gracing the Austin greens in May. Well, the Match Play has a set schedule, and May just ain't its month. Think of it like a music festival: Coachella rocks the desert in April, but you wouldn't expect to see it headlining ACL Fest in October, right?
So When CAN You Catch PGA Magic in Austin?
Fret not, my fellow golf enthusiasts! The World Golf Championships-Dell Technologies Match Play typically tees off in late February or early March. Mark your calendars, because watching these golfing gladiators battle it out is a sight to behold.
In the Meantime... Hit the Links Yourself!
Austin boasts some fantastic courses that are perfect for a round (or two) while you wait for the PGA to return. You might even spot a pro sharpening their skills in preparation for the Match Play! So grab your clubs, channel your inner Jordan Spieth, and enjoy some Austin sunshine on the fairway!
