Welcome
to CaddyBytes.com’s Tournament's page for
the 2012 Shell Houston Open golf tournament. The Shell Houston is now being played the last week in March and is the last tournament before the Masters.
There will be a strong field here this week with the likes of defending Masters
champion Phil Mickelson - who likes to tune up by playing the tournament the
week before the Masters each year. Also headlining will be Lee Westwood,
Matt Kuchar, and Steve Stricker that include a list of 32 players competing this
week who are also playing in next week's Masters tournament.
This tournament has been around
since 1946 with Byron Nelson emerging as the first winner. The great South
African Bobby Locke won it at Memorial park in 1947. Then it was played at
Pine Forest and Brae Burn only to return to Memorial Park in 1952. In 1963 Bob
Charles became the first lefthander to win on tour with his victory there in
the Houston Open.
The tournament then moved to the Champions golf club for
four years before being played at Westwood and Quail Valley before moving to a
more stable venue at the Woodlands in 1975. Then in 1985 the TPC East
Course was built at the Woodlands has been the 'permanent' home tract until moving to Red Stone G.C.
in 2004.
There have been some other great champions in Houston Open past that includes
the great Ben Hogan, Frank Stranahan, Jackie Burke, Cary Middlecoff, Roberto De
Vincenzo, Lee Trevino, Jack Nicklaus, and a popular victory for Fred Couples
in 2003 among others. Johnson Wagner won it in 2009, Paul Casey, in 2010
with Anthony Kim defending here in 2011.
