The five- year agreement runs through 2020 with the PGA TOUR event remaining at Silverado Resort and Spa for the duration. The Safeway Open dates back to 2007, with the event moving from CordeValle Golf Club in San Martin to Silverado Resort and Spa in Napa in 2014.

In 2018, the tournament will move to Trinity Forest Golf Club (a links-style course designed by Ben Crenshaw and Bill Coore), located just 10 minutes south of downtown Dallas. “Celebrating our 35-year partnership with the Irving community and the Four Seasons is the big theme of this year’s tournament,” said Tim Costello, 2017 AT&T Byron Nelson Tournament Chair. “The best part of our longtime partnership is the impact it’s had on our community, helping raise more than $150 million for Momentous Institute, impacting over 100,000 lives.” A look back at the 2016 AT&T Byron Nelson Sergio Garcia shot a final-round 68 for a 15-under 265 total and waited to see if Brooks Koepka, in the final group, would birdie the final hole for victory. Koepka’s two-putt par from 16-feet sent the pair to the 20th playoff in tournament history where Garcia claimed the AT&T Byron Nelson for the second time (2004) with a par to Koepka’s double-bogey at the first extra hole.

  • Episode 70: “Playing Through” Featuring Head Golf Professional at George H
    All the Best Podcast Episode 70: “Playing Through” Featuring Head Golf Professional at George H. W. Bush’s home golf course in Cape Arundel, Ken Raynor April 12th, 1987, flew late Saturday night to Maine. Had a totally non-political day in Maine. Door came down and left Eli and Sam in my charge when she and Barr went downtown. Eli woke up, Doro predicted she wouldn't. I picked her up, warmed up her bottle and tested it on my wrist just like the old days and fed her. Three enormous burps. Ken Raynor, the golf pro was over and he knew less about it than I did. He said, "No, no you don't have to burp them anymore." But after she showed a little discomfort about one-third of the way through, I put her on my shoulder and it came up right from her toes, the most enormous burp with some kind of after wave formula. It just about knocked me out. Sam came in after he got up. His mother had gotten home by then. He's so sweet, he loves Eli, all in all it was just heaven. George H.W. Bush. George: In the first place, I believe that character is a part of being President. Barbara: And life really must have joy. Sam: This is "All the Best." The official podcast of the George and Barbara Bush Foundation. I'm your host, Sam LeBlond, one of their many grandchildren. Here, we celebrate the legacy of these two incredible Americans through friends, family, and the foundation.
