The Lack of Sponsorship Showed
This was my first time attending the Houston Open and it was a very forgettable event for me. I've been to PGA golf tournaments all over the country and this one was one that I likely won't do again anytime soon. Ticket prices were reasonable, but I think the fact that this tournament falls right before The Masters really hurts Houston. The players who showed up were not well known or highly ranked. There were maybe a half dozen guys who were fun to watch and the atmosphere was just kind of dull all day (very few roars from the crowd, etc.). Pricing for food and drink at the course itself was extremely high for a golf event in my opinion. The course was in great shape from what I could tell though.
