SAN FRANCISCO – The membership at Austin (Texas) Country Club approved a four-year deal to host the WGC-Match Play beginning in 2016.
The PGA Tour previously announced the event’s move to Texas and a four-year sponsorship deal with Dell beginning next year.
“We look forward to bringing the best 64 players in the world to Austin and a club that has such rich tradition at a course that will be a challenging, but fair test for the field,” Tour commissioner Tim Finchem said.
The Match Play relocated to Harding Park for this year’s championship after eight years in the Tucson, Ariz.
