The 2021 AT&T Byron Nelson marks the first PGA TOUR stop to play in Collin County – the fourth fastest-growing county in the country. The county is also the future home of the PGA of America, whose new campus and two championship golf courses are currently under construction just a short drive away from TPC Craig Ranch.
The AT&T Byron Nelson has raised $167 million over the past 53 years, making it the most financially successful charity event on the PGA TOUR. In 2019, Momentous Institute was named the PGA TOUR Charity of the Year.
All proceeds from the tournament benefit Momentous Institute, the nonprofit founded and operated by the Salesmanship Club since 1920.
