“We feel very privileged to have the opportunity to bring the greatest names in the game of golf back to the Houston area thanks to the support of our new partner, Folds of Honor, during this milestone celebration for our tournament. This collection of legends are true ambassadors and role models in our sport,” said Bryan Naugle, Executive Director, Insperity Invitational. “Not only is this a great group of golfers, they are incredible people and special role models for all of us. Reuniting these extraordinary ambassadors of our game has become a staple of tournament week. They provide hours of entertainment and a lifetime of memories for our fans each year.”

The distinguished group includes 13 World Golf Hall of Famers who have combined for 234 PGA TOUR victories, 156 LPGA TOUR victories, 77 major championship titles, and 158 PGA TOUR Champions wins. Six of these players have won six or more major championships: Nicklaus (18); Annika (10); Player (9); Inkster (7); and both Bradley and Trevino (6).
