The PGA Tour is returning to Austin for the first time since 2023 for the Austin Championship at Omni Barton Creek Fazio Canyons Golf Course, taking place from Nov. 9 through Nov. 15.
The overview
The Austin Championship is part of the FedExCup Fall series, which includes eight events that determine a golfer’s eligibility for the 2027 PGA Tour season.
A total of 120 players are competing in the tournament for a $6 million prize and 500 FedExCup points.
Formerly known as the Good Good Championship, the Austin Championship was renamed in August after Good Good Golf and Callaway Golf released an ad that sparked controversy. The advertisement depicted a male golfer shoving a female golfer to the ground while promoting a co-branded golf club. Good Good later released a statement alongside the PGA announcing that it would no longer be sponsoring the Austin event, per previous reporting from Community Impact.
The tournament's presenting sponsor is now Compliance Solutions , with Choctaw Casinos & Resorts as the official casino resort sponsor.
