Insperity Invitational Announces Dates for 2023 Tournament
THE WOODLANDS, TX – Continuing on the momentum from the 2022 Insperity invitational, which included the announcement of Insperity and UnitedHealthcare extending their commitment through 2026, the tournament team announced the dates for the 2023 Insperity Invitational, which will mark the 20th anniversary of the tournament. Next year’s Insperity Invitational will take place April 24-30, 2023 at The Woodlands Country Club, with tournament rounds contested Friday, April 28 through Sunday, April 30.
“The Insperity Invitational annually raises the bar as one of the top events on our Tour,” said PGA TOUR Champions President Miller Brady. “This tournament is a favorite among our players, and we’re thrilled to continue the tradition of the Insperity Invitational at The Woodlands for the foreseeable future. We are appreciative of the outstanding fan support and the incredible hospitality from the club’s members, and we can’t wait to be back in 2023.”
On May 1, Insperity confirmed the annual Tradition of Excellence will continue in The Woodlands through 2026 with its four-year extension of the title sponsorship of the lone PGA TOUR Champions stop in the Houston area. UnitedHealthcare also announced it would continue its long-standing commitment to the event as the presenting sponsor through 2026.
At this year’s tournament, New Zealand native Steven Alker posted a four-shot victory, which catapulted him to the No. 1 spot on the Charles Schwab Cup standings. Alker, who turned 50 on July 28, 2021, has quickly emerged as one of the top players on the Champions Tour. In 17 starts on PGA TOUR Champions, Alker has posted 14 top-10 finishes, including three victories. Alker carded rounds of 67-65-66 for an 18-under finish, and during the 2022 season, he has carded rounds of par or better in 20 of 21 rounds. His 18-under 198 is the lowest score at the Insperity Invitational since the event moved to The Woodlands Country Club.
