Petruzzelli Wins Texas Cup Invitational

GLADEWATER – Dallas’ Andrew Petruzzelli fired a scorching 6-under 66 in Wednesday’s final round to win the Texas Cup Invitational. The TCU signee began the day three shots back of the lead and ended it three shots ahead of the field by carding the low round of the tournament. This is Petruzzelli’s second consecutive LJT victory after he won the Spring Preview at The Golf Club at Texas A&M back in February.

The class of 2023 senior saw his lead grow to as many as four shots on the back nine as he poured in birdies at Tempest Golf Club. The first time major champion went out in 4-under 32 and came in with a 2-under 34.

“I just tried to stay really patient,” Petruzzelli said. “I was three back heading into to today and knew I had to make some birdies. I focused on hitting good shots and making some putts and luckily that happened for me.”

Petruzzelli’s final round included six birdies and an eagle on the par-5 sixth hole. As he approaches the end of his junior golf career, today’s victory won’t soon be forgotten.

“It means a lot. I hadn’t won much lately until these last couple LJT events. It just feels good that good golf is coming at the right time,” he said.

Finishing runner-up was Frisco’s Luke Colton who made a valiant effort in the final round by shooting a 5-under 67. He finished at 4-under for the championship and two shots ahead of a trio of players tied that for third.

Dallas’ Brooks Harper, 36-hole leader Grayson Sebastian, and Selma’s Shiv Parmar finished at 2-under overall and rounded out the top five in the major championship.

Ryan Shellberg joined the group under par for the week by finishing 1-under overall and in sixth place. Defending champion Connor Henry of Fort Worth put forth a great effort in his title defense but came up just short as he placed tied-ninth for the tournament.

The par-4 third hole which had played the hardest in the first two rounds saw ample improvement in the final round as it played tenth hardest. The par-4 14th hole played hardest as it played to 4.54 scoring average.

The Texas Cup Invitational was the first of two boys-only majors on the LJT schedule. The Veritex Bank Byron Nelson Junior Championship is the second one and will be played on June 6-8 at Lakewood Country Club in Dallas.

The Legends Junior Tour would like to thank Tempest Golf Club for being a wonderful host and providing a spectacular experience to all our staff and players.

Sebastian Maintains Lead at Texas Cup Invitational

GLADEWATER – Richmond’s Grayson Sebastian battled in Tuesday’s second round of the Texas Cup Invitational to post a 1-under 71 and maintain his lead. The class of 2025 sophomore sits at 4-under for the championship and will take a one shot lead into Wednesday’s final round of the first LJT Boys Major of the year.

“My approach for tomorrow will be to just control what I can control,” said Sebastian after his round. “I plan to get some good rest and be energized for tomorrow. I’m not going to think about golf until I step back on the course tomorrow (Wednesday) morning.”

Sebastian had an up and down second round that included five birdies and four bogeys on the scorecard. He will look to claim his first LJT title on Wednesday.

Defending champion Connor Henry is hot on his heels after a solid second round score of 3-under 69. Henry sits in solo second at 3-under for the championship and has showed no signs of nerves in defending his title.

“I feel good. I’m very comfortable out there,” Henry said. “I feel like I’m doing a good job of putting myself in the right spots to score.”

Dallas’ Brooks Harper and Selma’s Shiv Parmar are in a tie for third at 2-under. Harper shot a 1-under 71 and Parmar carded an even-par 72 in round two.

Sitting tied for fifth is Burleson’s Blake Keen and Dallas’ Andrew Petruzzelli at 1-under overall. At even-par and tied for seventh is Tyler’s Connor Carver and Prosper’s Ryan Shellberg. All four of these juniors will look to come from behind and create a magical final round on Wednesday.

Three players occupy a tie for ninth at 1-over through 36 holes including Austin’s Sterling Hurd. The class of 2026 freshman fired the low round of the tournament thus far with a 5-under 67 in round two. Hurd’s impressive play vaulted him back up the leaderboard and in contention with 18 holes left.

“Today I was trying to get myself back into contention and I did,” Hurd said. “Hopefully tomorrow I can play the same way and maybe make even a few more putts. That’s the game plan for the final round.”

The par-4 third hole played the toughest again in round two at a 4.47 stroke average for the 84-player field. It yielded four birdies on the day which was double the amount from round one. Conversely, the par-5 sixth hole played the easiest with a stroke average of 4.94 and was the only hole that played under-par.

The Texas Cup Invitational, the first of the two boys-only majors on the LJT annual schedule, is the LJT boys first 54-hole event of the year.

The Final Round of the Texas Cup Invitational is scheduled for Wednesday, Mar. 15 with tee times beginning on No. 1 tee at 8:15 AM. To see pairings, click here.

Sebastian Leads at Texas Cup Invitational After Round 1

GLADEWATER – Grayson Sebastian, a class of 2025 sophomore out of Richmond, fired a 3-under 69 on Monday to take the early lead at the Texas Cup Invitational. Chilly temperatures and windy conditions kept scores at bay in round one of the first LJT Boys Major of the year.

“It was a really pretty day out here,” said Sebastian. “The course was in good condition. Firing at every pin and hitting it close was my game plan for the easy targets. The harder pins I just hit it to the center of the green. I think I executed really well on that, and I played really solid golf today.”

His opening round 69, put him one shot ahead of the best junior golfers in the state. Prior to this week, Sebastian had never played Tempest Golf Club before but you wouldn’t realize it looking at his round one scorecard that featured four birdies and just one bogey.

“I think Tempest fits my game very well. I play a cut off the tee and I think a lot of these holes fit my cut. The course is really well designed,” said Sebastian.

A jam-packed leaderboard is nipping at the heels of the leader. Prosper’s Ryan Shellberg and Selma’s Shiv Parmar sit in a tie for second after carding rounds of 2-under 70.

Shellberg was 5-under through ten holes but finished with three bogeys in his last eight holes.

“My plan is to just stay patient all week,” Shellberg said of his plan for the rest of the tournament. “Whatever happens, happens.”

There is a log jam at 1-under and two shots off the lead in tied fourth overall. Included in that large pack is Fort Worth’s Cason Ayers, Dallas’ Andrew Petruzzelli, Dallas’ Brooks Harper, Dallas’ Matthew Foster, Austin’s Trenton Mierl, Southlake’s Andrea Birolini, Burleson’s Blake Keen, and Heath’s Max Chan.

Ayers, like many other players, gave praise to Tempest Golf Club’s beautiful track.

“I like that it’s challenging. You have to be precise off the tee. I felt like I was precise off the box today,” he said. “The greens are true. Very true.”

Defending champion Connor Henry headlines a group of six players who sit tied 12th at even par and three shots back of the lead.

The par-4 third hole played the toughest in round one at a 4.65 stroke average for the 84-player field. It yielded only two birdies on the day.

The Texas Cup Invitational, the first of the two boys-only majors on the LJT annual schedule, is the LJT boys first 54-hole event of the year.

The Second Round of the Texas Cup Invitational is scheduled for Tuesday, Mar. 14 with tee times beginning on No. 1 tee at 8:15 AM. To see pairings, click here.

LJT Texas Cup Invitational Heads to Tempest Golf Club

ADDISON – The Legends Junior Tour’s Texas Cup Invitational heads to Tempest Golf Club on March 13-15 for the first time in the tournament’s 16-year history.

“The Texas Cup Invitational always garners a lot of interest because it’s the first major of the year for the boys, and we are excited to be heading east this year for what is sure to be another compelling championship” said Tournament Manager Adam Schulte. “Tempest Golf Club is looking forward to showcasing their incredible course to the best juniors in the state and providing a truly memorable experience for players and spectators alike.”

The Texas Cup Invitational, the first of the two boys-only majors on the LJT annual schedule, will feature a starting field of 84 of the top junior boys aged 12-18 playing 54 holes of stroke-play competition. This will be the LJT boys first 54-hole event of the year.

Tempest Golf Club, a beautiful and challenging layout, resides just outside of Tyler in the small town of Gladewater. Tempest has slowly but surely been widening its fan base as more and more people from the DFW and Shreveport areas continue to discover its many charms.

Tempest’s Director of Golf Randy Wade says, “Tempest is unique because of the property that it was built on. The topography is unlike any courses in the East Texas or surrounding areas. The elevation changes, rolling hills and tall pine trees create a beauty versus challenge experience for all golfers.”

In 2018, the course underwent a $20 million dollar renovation led by Arlington-based architect Jeffrey D. Brauer and opened after switching ownership. The past couple of years have been the busiest yet for the club in terms of total rounds played. The accolades have started to roll in as well. Following Brauer’s extensive redo, the Dallas Morning News ranked Tempest as the 2nd best new/renovated golf course in 2020 and 59th on the list of Top 100 Courses in Texas in 2022.

The Texas Cup Invitational has previously been played at Abilene Country Club’s South Course (2022), Ridgewood Country Club (2021), Stonebridge Ranch Country Club (2019-20), Ridglea Country Club (2017-18), Mira Vista Country Club (2013-16) and The Honors Club of Dallas (2008-12), now known as Maridoe Golf Club.

Last year’s championship was shortened to 36-holes due to icy conditions. Fort Worth’s Connor Henry captured the 2022 title by finishing at even-par 144 for the tournament and edged out Parker Sands of Edmond, Okla., by a stroke.

The tournament has produced some elite past champions including Stratton Nolen (2010), Andrew Winters (2011), Chandler Phillips (2012), Braden Bailey (2013), Ryan Grider (2016), Thomas Bockholt III (2018) and Brian Boles (2019).

The event is ranked by the World Amateur Golf Ranking, Golfweek and Junior Golf Scoreboard and offers numerous AJGA Stars to the top finishers. Additionally, exemptions into future LJT Invitationals will be awarded.

Henry Leads at Texas Cup Invitational After Round 1

ABILENE – High winds and tough conditions kept scores at bay in the first round of the 2022 Texas Cup Invitational at Abilene Country Club Saturday, with just two players, Connor Henry and Parker Sands, shooting under par in the elite junior event.

Scheduled for 54 holes, the event was shortened to 36 holes after Friday’s first round was cancelled due to the weather.

With gusting winds on the Ron Garl and Charles Coody designed par 72 course, Connor Henry was able to put together a solid round to vault himself atop the tightly packed leaderboard.

“I made a lot of eight-foot, ten-foot putts. I was hitting my irons really solid, wedges solid,” said Henry, a junior from Fort Worth. “I think the course is great. It’s definitely gettable if you hit it in the right spots.”

His opening round 69, put him one shot ahead of an elite field in the first major championship for the LJT boys of the year.

Sitting just behind in second is Edmond, Oklahoma’s Parker Sands. Sands rolled in five birdies on the day including four in a row on his back nine.

“I had a bogey early and then I took advantage of some easier holes in my opinion,” said Sands, the sophomore from Oklahoma. “I had four birdies in a row on holes twelve through fifteen and my wedges were super good.”

Belton’s Chandler Cooke carded an even-par round of 72 to put himself in solo third and in contention heading into Sunday’s final round at Abilene Country Club’s South Course. Frisco’s Luke Colton sits in fourth at one-over par after a 73.

A slew of five competitors sit tied fifth with rounds of 2-over 74 to round out the top five on the leaderboard. This includes Austin’s Andrew Tan, Austin’s Hugh Donegan, Austin’s Tyler Blackwell, Boerne’s Price Hill, and David Martinez of Houston.

The Final Round of the Texas Cup Invitational is scheduled for Sunday, Mar. 13 with tee times going off the No. 1 and 10 tees starting at 10:00 AM. To see pairings for the final round, click here.

LJT Texas Cup Invitational Heads to Abilene

ADDISON – The Legends Junior Tour’s Texas Cup Invitational heads to Abilene Country Club (South Course) on Mar. 11-13 for the first time in the tournament’s 15-year history. 

“The Texas Cup Invitational is always a popular event because it’s the first major of the year for the boys. We are excited to head west this year and add new names to an already impressive past champions list,” said Tournament Manager Adam Schulte. 

The Texas Cup Invitational is the first boys major on the schedule and will feature an 84-player boys-only invitational field playing 54 holes of stroke play competition. This will be the LJT boys first 54-hole event of the year.  

Opened in 1980, Abilene Country Club’s South Course (formerly known as the Fairway Course and Fairway Oaks) was designed by Ron Garl and Charles Coody. Host to PGA Tour and Senior PGA Tour events from 1981-1990, the South Course has a well-earned reputation as a long, challenging layout with narrow fairways, numerous water hazards, prominent bunkering and large, undulating green complexes. When the wind blows, as it frequently does, the 7,136-yard, par-72 South Course provides a stern test of skill for even the most accomplished players. 

The Texas Cup Invitational has previously been hosted at Ridgewood Country Club (2021), Stonebridge Ranch Country Club (2019-20), Ridglea Country Club (2017-18), Mira Vista Country Club (2013-16) and The Honors Club of Dallas (2008-12), now known as Maridoe Golf Club.  

In last year’s event San Antonio’s Patrick Kahanek edged out a packed leaderboard by one stroke after finishing 1-over for the tournament in tough conditions. He fired a final round 2-under 68 to capture the victory. 

The tournament has produced some elite past champions including Stratton Nolen (2010), Andrew Winters (2011), Chandler Phillips (2012), Braden Bailey (2013), Ryan Grider (2016), Thomas Bockholt III (2018) and Brian Boles (2019). 

The event is ranked by the World Amateur Golf Ranking, Golfweek and Junior Golf Scoreboard and offers numerous AJGA Stars to the top finishers. Additionally, exemptions into future LJT Invitationals will be awarded.

Kahanek birdies two of closing three holes Sunday to capture 2021 Texas Cup Invitational

WACO – San Antonio’s Patrick Kahanek birdied two of the last three holes Sunday at Ridgewood Country Club to capture the 2021 Texas Cup Invitational, the first major of the Legends Junior Tour’s season.

The Antonian High School senior, who will play golf at UTSA this fall, fired a final round 68-211 54-hole total. He recorded a one-shot win over Hunter Drotts, final round 72, and Awesome Burnett, who shot a closing 64.

Byungho Lee, Garrett Endicott and Julio Alfredo Rios Brache all tied for fourth at 213 with scores of 69, 68 and 68, respectively.

“On the back nine, my caddy was looking at the scores and he said a couple of birdies could really help me, so that’s what I tried do,” Kahanek said.

Indeed it could as he rolled in a 15-footer on the par 3 16^th for a birdie which moved him into a share of the lead, after early third round leader Drotts made double bogey on the same hole one group later.

Both Kahanek and Drotts pared the 17^th hole, a par four, only to set up the drama on the closing challenge, the par 4 18^th at Ridgewood on the shores of Lake Waco.

Kahanek had 83 yards to the green after his drive and hit a 58-degree wedge to within five feet of the hole for the closing birdie.

“The club felt really good in my hand and the yardage was right for me. I just got it up in the air, rode the (jet) stream and it was money.”

After Drotts failed to make a birdie of his own on 18, Kahanek owned the biggest victory of his LJT junior golf career.

“This is what we work for, to birdie 18 and take home the win. I’ve been doing a lot of work on my putting and it’s really paid off today.”

Drotts, who didn’t get into the tournament until the last minute, held a three-shot lead on much of the back nine, but the par 3 16^th proved to be his undoing.

“I just plugged my tee shot in the back bunker and from there, where the pin was, there wasn’t much I could do. I pitched it out, but it rolled all the way to the front of the green and the overhanging trees blocked my approach.

“I gave it a good run today and almost got it done. For getting in the tournament at the last minute, I’m pleased with what I was able to accomplish. I’ve got a lot of good things to take away from this”

So does Burnett, who tied his personal tournament low, with a six-under-par 64 final round, three shots off the competitive course record at Ridgewood.

The freshman from Flower Mound got his round off to a great start by holing out from the second fairway from 68 yards for an eagle two. On the fifth hole, he made a 20-foot birdie putt from off the green en route to a front nine 30. He only added one birdie on the back side, but said it was thrilled with his round.

“I played great today. The eagle at number two really got my round going and I was able to keep it going with a bunch of putts on the front nine.

“I love this course at Ridgewood, I’ve won a couple of Starburst (junior) tournaments here and it always feels good to be back.”

While he may not return as a junior golfer, Kahanek said he felt the same about the site of his greatest junior golf win to date.

“I’ve been doing a lot of work and had some good finishes, but this is my first win in a long time. This feels like a real breakthrough for me.”

The LJT will head to Brownwood next for the Bluebonnet Championship in early May. For final scores at the Texas Cup Invitational, click here

Webb Shoots Low Score at Texas Cup Invitational, leads Second Round by One

WACO – Holden Webb shot the low round of the 2021 Texas Cup Invitational, a second round 66 Saturday, to take a slim one-shot lead over late-arriving Hunter Drotts after 36 holes of the first major of the Legends Junior Tour Season.

Webb, a Shreveport, Louisiana native, whose dad Craig briefly played on the PGA Tour, had six birdies at Ridgewood Country Club, including a 30-foot birdie putt on 17, with only two bogeys. It gave him a two-day total of 140 and a chance to get a prestigious win in his first individual tournament of the year.

Webb finished second with a two-day total of 139. Drotts shot a second round 68-140. Ryan Shellberg from Prosper was alone in third place with a second round even-par 70-141 total. Spring’s Andrew Spaulding was solo fourth at 70-142.

The second round leader used some local course knowledge after he played Ridgewood 4 years ago in the Starburst Junior Tournament and said it began to come back to him after a practice round this week. He is also a product of the prestigious David Toms 265 Golf Academy, which has already produced professional golfers Sam Burns and Phillip Barberee.

“That motivates me out here because I’ve seen what they have done on the Tour and I came from the same place.”

In his tournament low round, Webb got off to a fast start with a birdie on number one and seven, then got on a role with birdies on 9-10-11 before his birdie bomb on 17^th.

“I was just trying to keep the ball in front of me and makes some putts when I got the chance. I hit a lot of club today on a lot of holes because the wind came from everywhere. I did a lot of work in the off season and it’s good to seeing it’s paying off.”

Drotts’ only motivation was a late Thursday afternoon phone call informing the League City resident he was in the tournament and needed to get to Waco and Ridgewood ASAP.

“I had applied and didn’t get in. So I sent them (LJT) an email saying I was still available and they told him I was the fifth alternate. One guy dropped out and I guess the other three couldn’t make it, so I got the call,” Drotts said.

He dropped everything he was doing at home, to get ready to make the 4-plus hour trip, going through College Station to pick up his buddy Cole Stock who is serving as his caddy this week.

They arrived in Waco late Thursday night, too late for a practice round, and without a place to stay because they were below the minimum age to rent a hotel room on their own. They were able to find another friend in town to crash in his room and then made it to the course early Friday morning.

Without ever seeing the course, he fired an opening 73, then turned in his two-under 68 on a windy Saturday on the shores of Lake Waco, to get within a shot of the lead.

The senior Cameron University commit had birdies on holes 2-7-9-10 and 15, the last coming with a 20-foot putt which caught the edge of the cup and tumbled in. He missed a two-foot par putt on 18, but said he was overall pleased with his round.

“I made so many putts, I’m not going to complain about the one I didn’t make. My caddy and I were talking coming up there, this could be our chance. It didn’t work out for them (other alternates) to get into the tournament, but it worked out for me and I’m going to take advantage of it.”

The final round of the Texas Cup Invitational will begin Sunday morning at 8:15 AM. For final round pairings, click here.

Gonzalez Leads at Texas Cup Invitational After Round 1

WACO – High winds and tough conditions sent scores soaring in the first round of the 2021 Texas Cup Invitational at Ridgewood Country Club Friday, with just a single player, Texas commit Alejandro Gonzalez, shooting under par in the elite junior event.

With gusting winds on the classic Ralph Plummer designed par 70 course, on the shores of Lake Waco, the average score for the first day of the 54-hole event was 75.93. There were 24 scores at 78 or higher compared to only 11 of 72 or lower.

“I thought I played pretty good today, putted good, hit it well, but that wind was tough today. It could come from anywhere,” said Gonzalez.

His opening round 68, put him two shots clear of the best junior golfers in the state in the major championship for the Legends Junior Tour.

Tied for second was Austin’s Prayaag Oruganti and Andrew Spaulding from Spring at even par 70. A total of 6 players were tied for fourth at 71, including Dallas’ Parker Heath. He held the back nine lead at 3-under-par after a birdie on the par 4 14^th hole, only to finish bogey, double bogey, bogey, par.

Even Gonzalez, from Queretaro, Mexico, who played in an early group, fell victim to the tough Central Texas conditions. He had a triple bogey seven on the par 4 sixth hole, but rebounded with birdies on 1, 4, 8 and 15, plus a chip in eagle on the par 4, 14^th.

“It was tough out there today. On the 6^th hole I hooked it left and then just started chipping it out,” he said. “But I was able to come back.”

Indeed he did with birdie putts all less than 15^th feet and the eagle chip in he said was as lucky as it was good.

“I was 50 yards out to the side off the fairway and was trying to hit a high shot which would bounce on the green. Instead, I hit it low and running. I didn’t see it, but they said it hit the pin and went in. It was a lucky bounce.”

But the star junior who has worked for the last five years with Jordan Spieth teacher Cameron McCormick said it was another good day on a course he had never seen before two days ago.

“There are some blind tee shots out here you have to be ready for, but it’s a nice course, great condition and really good greens. Working with Cameron has helped my game so much in a lot of areas.”

Baylor University commit Sam Dossey led a group of players tied for 12^th at 73, three-over-par, while Waco’s Brayden Bare had the lowest local score of 78.

The Second Round of the Texas Cup Invitational is scheduled for Saturday, Mar. 13 with tee times going off the No. 1 and 10 tees. To see pairings for the final round, click here.

Brandon Massey Wins Texas Cup Invitational

MCKINNEY – Brandon Massey of Fort Worth fired a second consecutive 2-under-par 69 to win his second Texas Cup Invitational by four strokes. The 2020 Texas Christian University commit battled all week at Stonebridge Ranch Country Club’s Dye Course to become the first two-time champion of the boys-only invitational.

“I haven’t won in a while,” Massey said. “I haven’t played in an individual tournament in a while so it’s huge for me.”

Massey, who won at Ridglea Country Club in 2017, displayed poise throughout the 54-hole championship. On Wednesday, the senior at Arlington Heights High School continued to demonstrate his composure.

After finding the left fescue on the par-5 third hole, Massey tried to punch his ball low under some overhanging branches. He didn’t get the ball high enough to clear the thick grass and only advanced it five yards. Massey punched his third shot down the fairway, played his approach shot to the green and two-putted for a bogey.

He made another bogey on the par-4 sixth and was four shots off the lead. However, as he had done all week, he didn’t waiver nor count himself out of the tournament. Massey strung together three consecutive birdies to card an opening nine 1-under-par 35.

He carried the momentum into the back nine and with a birdie on the par-3 12th was tied for the lead with Jacob Borow of Lake Jackson. Borow, who held a share of the 36-hole lead, struggled down the stretch and opened the door for the groups ahead of him.

Massey birdied the par-5 16th to take a one-shot lead with two holes to play. His tee shot on the par-3 17th was long, left and found the thick fescue over the green.

“I really wanted to make a par there and get out of there with a three,” Massey said. “I saw my lie and didn’t have much. I couldn’t go right at the flag so I took it a little left and hit it perfect.”

Massey pulled off an incredible pitch and found the putting surface 15 feet from the hole. He drained the par-putt to stay one-shot ahead of the field. After a routine par on the par-4 18th, Massey signed for his second 2-under 69 for the week and the low-round of the day. He finished at 3-over-par 216 for the championship.

The final two groups continued to struggle down the stretch. Borow and Ethan Fang of Plano carded 5-over-par 76s, while Byungho Lee of Houston posted a 3-over-par 74. In the end, Massey’s victory was a four-stroke margin.

“I struggled the first day, but you know we got it back on track,” Massey said.

On Monday, 25 mph gusts and rain showers in the morning made the playing conditions very difficult. He carded an opening round 7-over-par 78 and was tied for 26th.

Massey began the second round five shots off the lead, but he made a statement on moving day.  He carded five birdies en route the lowest round of the day and climbed 21 spots up the leaderboard into a tie for fifth. Massey’s goal on Wednesday was to climb five spots and he did for his second Texas Cup Invitational title.

“I hope to carry this momentum throughout the season and into the summer,” Massey said.

He plans to compete in the 21st Veritex Bank Byron Nelson Junior Championship in June as well as a few USGA qualifiers before attending TCU in August.

Borow, Fang and Lee finished in a tie for second at 7-over-par 220. Andrew Spaulding of Spring, Jackson Drake of Lubbock and Nicholas Hance of Irving finished tied fifth at 10-over-par 223. Trevor Mierl of Austin and Jackson Naeger of Keller finished tied eighth at 11-over-par 224, while Alejandro Gonzalez of Queretaro, Mexico, Frisco’s Shivam Patel and Songge Jiang and Garrett Endicott of San Antonio rounded out the top-10 at 12-over-par 225.

The Texas Cup Invitational plays Stonebridge Ranch CC’s Dye Course as a par 71. The normal par-5 13th hole is played as a long par-4 for the championship. The second round was played at 6,841 yards.

The Texas Golf Association extends its sincere appreciation to the staff and members of Stonebridge Ranch Country Club as well as our volunteers for their integral part in making the 2020 Texas Cup Invitational a memorable and success event.
