2017 Shriners Hospitals For Children Open tee times, viewer's guide
Steve Dykes
The PGA Tour makes its first of two stops on the schedule in Nevada this week for the Shriners Hospitals for Children Open, which takes place at TPC Summerlin in Las Vegas. The tournament was founded nearly 34 years ago and has since gone by 10 different names, but it's best remembered as the site of Tiger Woods' first career PGA Tour victory, when he won it in 1996 while it was known as the Las Vegas Invitational.
Last season, Rod Pampling got his third career victory at the Shriners nearly a decade after his last win, beating soon-to-be U.S. Open champion Brooks Koepka by two shots. Pampling will be among a number of past champions in the field this week, including Smylie Kaufman, Webb Simpson, Ben Martin, Ryan Moore, Kevin Na, Jonathan Byrd and Martin Laird.
Also in the field is the Web.com Tour's A.J. McInerney, a Las Vegas native who earned an exemption into the Shriners based on the heroic way he reacted the night of the worst mass shooting in U.S. history at the Route 91 Harvest Music Festival.
