Fort Worth to Welcome PGA Golf’s Elite and New VIP Experience at the 2025 Charles Schwab Challenge

Since 1946, the stunning Colonial Country Club in Fort Worth has set the stage for one of the PGA Tour’s most iconic tournaments — the Charles Schwab Challenge. Every May, the world’s elite golfers gather in the heart of Fort Worth, each vying to add their name alongside past champions like Jordan Spieth, Justin Rose, and Kevin Na.

After a thrilling and emotional victory last year, defending champion Davis Riley returns to the Charles Schwab Challenge (May 19 through 25) to defend his title at Colonial Country Club. Last year’s win came amid personal challenges as his sister, now fully recovered, battled a serious health issue. The 2025 Charles Schwab Challenge, which has raised over $20 million for local charities, promises another unforgettable week of world-class golf, rich tradition, and new experiences at Colonial Country Club.

What to Expect at the 2025 Charles Schwab Challenge

Colonial Country Club’s greens are as challenging to master as they are beautiful. Narrow fairways, tight approaches, and swirling Texas winds will put every shot to the test. The action begins Monday, May 19, with the Ben Hogan Pro-Am, followed by the Colonial Pro-Am on Wednesday, May 21. The full tournament field tees off on Thursday, leading into four days of elite competition on one of the PGA Tour’s most demanding courses.

Defending champion Davis Riley returns to Colonial looking to build on last year’s emotional victory. He will be joined by a strong lineup that includes local favorite Jordan Spieth, England’s Tommy Fleetwood, major champion Lucas Glover, and rising star Will Zalatoris.

The week-long offers fans a lively mix of social experiences beyond the fairways. Highlights include the new Choctaw Club Village VIP Experience with panoramic views and casino-style games, the Schwab Performance Center featuring interactive golf challenges, and Cadillac EV Viewing Decks for prime course access. Families can enjoy the Family Zone and Kids Autograph Zone, while shoppers can browse official gear at the Fan Shop. Concession tents and booths are placed throughout the golf course.
