This week, the PGA Tour makes its return to McKinney, Texas, for the CJ Cup Byron Nelson tournament, held at the TPC Craig Ranch course. The event features a field of 156 golfers who will compete for a significant portion of the $9.9 million total prize fund, with the eventual winner receiving $1,782,000. World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler is among the top competitors participating. Although still seeking his first victory of 2025, Scheffler previously had a strong showing at TPC Craig Ranch in 2023, finishing in a tie for fifth place. Last season, Taylor Pendrith claimed the title after a close finish against Ben Kohles.
