The 2025 Texas Children’s Houston Open is heating up as the action moves into the second round on Friday, March 28, 2025, at the Memorial Park Golf Course in Texas. Following a dramatic opening round where four players shared the lead, fans are eagerly anticipating the next set of tee times and the unfolding drama of this prestigious tournament.
After a challenging first day marked by rain and breezy conditions, Alejandro Tosti, Ryan Gerard, Keith Mitchell, and Taylor Pendrith each shot an impressive 5-under 65, placing them atop the leaderboard. Their strong performances have set the stage for an exciting second round as they look to maintain their momentum amidst the unpredictable Texas weather.
Rory McIlroy, one of the tournament favorites, faced tough conditions during his first round. Starting early on Thursday, he battled through heavy rain, finishing his first nine holes at one over par. However, McIlroy managed to regain his composure, finishing the round with an even-par 70. He will be looking to improve his standing when he tees off at 2:03 p.m. ET on Friday, playing alongside Maverick McNealy and Wyndham Clark.
The second round promises to be just as thrilling, with McIlroy needing to tap into the form that saw him win both the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am and the Players Championship earlier this year. Golf enthusiasts can catch the action live on the Golf Channel from 4-7 p.m. ET, or stream it via PGA Tour Live on ESPN+ starting at 8:15 a.m. ET.
As the tournament progresses, the stakes are high with a purse of $9.5 million on the line, including a hefty $1.71 million for the winner, along with 500 FedEx Cup points. The competition is fierce, and every stroke counts as players vie for the top position.
