HOUSTON – Some of the biggest names on the PGA Tour are hitting the green in Houston to support Texas Children’s Hospital from March 26 - 29.
Watch the full “Houston Life” show in the player above as the crew explores the fan experience at the Texas Children’s Houston Open, where the whole family can enjoy interactive activities and learn about custom cleats designed by young hospital patients and more.
Since 2019, the tournament has raised $24 million for local charities, including Texas Children’s Hospital, helping provide medical care for children in the community.
Lauren Kelly caught up with golf pro Ben Griffin about what fans can expect at the tournament this weekend.
Some notable players fans can look out for include Min Woo Lee, the reigning 2025 Texas Children’s Houston Open champion and currently ranked No. 7 in the FedEx Cup standings. Also competing is Brooks Koepka, who helped Tom Doak design the course and has had success at Memorial Park, finishing fifth in 2020. Chris Gotterup, ranked No. 7 in the world and No. 5 in the PGA Tour’s FedEx Cup standings, is also in the field.
If you’re watching closely, you’ll spot PGA Tour players wearing custom cleats inspired by artwork created by young patients at Texas Children’s Hospital. Through this special initiative, children’s drawings are transformed into unique shoe designs that golfers wear during tournament weekend. The cleats are then made available through an auction, giving fans the chance to bid on one-of-a-kind pieces while supporting patient care, research and programs that benefit children and families at Texas Children’s Hospital.
Then, Mel Camp takes you inside the kids’ junior clubhouse located at hole 18, an entertaining space designed for kids of all abilities to enjoy.
While the kids are playing, Derrick and Tessa check out the Texas Children’s Bunker Challenge, where adults can test their golf skills.
