How to watch Houston Open on Thursday

If you thought you had to wait until the 2025 Masters to see the game’s best compete again, think again. The top two golfers in the world are set to tee it up at the Texas Children’s Houston Open on Thursday.

World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler and No. 2 Rory McIlroy are both in the field this week. While McIlroy hasn’t played the Houston Open since it moved to Memorial Park, Scheffler finished runner-up last year.

The two players’ performances so far in 2025 have differed as well. Rory has captured two big Tour wins already, while Scheffler is still looking for his first.
