The CJ Cup Byron Nelson has been an event on the PGA Tour schedule since 1944. In 1968, it started to use Byron Nelson’s name to honor the 52-time PGA Tour winner and Texas native.
With May being Mental Health Awareness Month, Saturday is the tournament’s “Green Out” day, when the players and fans will wear green to show support the cause. The caddies will also wear custom bibs that showcase how the players keep their mental health strong.
Five of the last six winners of this event have been international players. However, in 2025, Scottie Scheffler won by eight strokes for his 14th time on the PGA Tour.
