When will Tony Finau tee off round 1 at the 2024 Texas Children’s Houston Open? Defending champion’s tee time explored

Tony Finau won the Houston Open in 2022 and is back this week to defend his title. Finau will tee off Round 1 of the 2024 Texas Children’s Houston Open on Thursday at 1:53 pm ET. The World No.30 golfer joins fan favorites Wyndham Clark and Si Woo Kim on the first tee at Memorial Park Golf Course in Houston. The group will follow the pairing of Patton Kizzire, Ryan Moore and Callum Tarren.

Finau seems excited about the return of the Houston Open to the PGA Tour schedule after a year’s break. Notably, the 34-year-old is one of the favorites this weekend. According to SportsLine, the 6x Tour winner comes into the event with +2200 odds. After a missed cut at the Valspar Championship last week, Finau will be eyeing a comeback win on Sunday.

For the unversed, Tony Finau won the Houston Open in 2022 by beating runner-up Tyson Alexander by 4 strokes. He claimed his fifth PGA Tour title at the time. He is now returning as one of the 10 top 50 OWGR-ranked players on the 2024 Houston Open field.

The defending champion sits behind the likes of Scottie Scheffler (+260), Wyndham Clark (+1200), Will Zalatoris (+2000) and Sahith Theegala (+2000) on the event’s odds list.

With a stacked field in contention for the $9,100,000 prize event, it’ll be interesting to see how Finau fares this weekend.
