2023 AT&T Byron Nelson - Golf Spectator Guide

FAQ For Spectators

By Brian Weis

The AT&T Byron Nelson schedule of events defies the common definition of a golf tournament. It's not just a stop on the PGA TOUR, a FedExCup event and the best opportunity for seeing the next generation of golf legends emerge. It's North Texas' seven best days of the year. It's a party that pauses between putts and a chance to do something extraordinary-right in your backyard- outside of your day-to-day routine.

Who is Byron Nelson?
In 1945, Byron Nelson accomplished an incredible winning streak. He finished that year with 18 victories, including 11 straight, and established a record for the lowest scoring average (68.33), which remained untouched for 55 years.

During his career, Byron Nelson won 52 PGA TOUR-sanctioned tournaments, including the 1939 U.S. Open, the 1937 and 1942 Masters, and the 1940 and 1945 PGA Championships. In 1968, Byron Nelson lent his name to the Byron Nelson Golf Classic, and the result has been a long and successful partnership.

In 2006, Byron was posthumously awarded the Congressional Gold Medal for his humanitarian efforts. He passed away in September
2006.

In 2007, Salesmanship Club announced the creation of a special award to honor Byron's legacy. The Byron Nelson International Junior Golf Awards were awarded for
the first time at the 2008 tournament. The awards were created to continue Byron Nelson's legacy of encouraging and mentoring young golfers. Through this awards program, exceptional junior golfers from around the world with strong character, academics and commitment to community are identified and invited to thetournament each year.

About: Brian Weis

Brian Weis is the Publisher of GolfTrips.com, a network of golf travel and directory sites including GolfWisconsin.com, GolfMichigan.com, ArizonaGolfer.com, GolfAlabama.com, etc. Professionally, Brian is a member of the Golf Writers Association of America (GWAA), International Network of Golf (ING), Golf Travel Writers of America (GTWA), International Golf Travel Writers Association (IGTWA) and The Society of Hickory Golfers (SoHG). In 2016, Brian won The Shaheen Cup, an award given to a golf travel writer by his peers.

All of his life, Brian has been around the game of golf. As a youngster, Brian competed at all levels in junior and high school golf. Brian had a zero chance for a college golf scholarship, so he worked on the grounds crew at West Bend Country Club to pay for his University of Wisconsin education. In his adult years, his passion for the game collided with his entrepreneurial spirit and in 2004 launched GolfWisconsin.com. In 2007, the idea for a network of local golf directory sites formed and GolfTrips.com was born. Today, the network consists of a site in all 50 states supported by national sites like GolfTrips.com, GolfGuide.com and GolfPackages.com. It is an understatement to say, Brian is passionate about promoting golf and golf travel on a local, regional, national and international level.

On the golf course, Brian is known as a fierce weekend warrior that fluctuates between a 5-9 handicap. With a soft fade, known as "The Weis Slice", and booming 300+ drives, he can blast it out of bounds with the best of them.
