Texas Cup
Background and Details
The Fifth Annual Texas Cup is coming in 2025! A three-way Ryder Cup-style event, Texas Cup predates the Roost concept as a whole, and while it’s not technically a STROH’s event, 2/3 of the teams represent STROH’s territory, so we include it in our season planning. Three rounds of golf, Fourball, Modified Alt-Shot, and Singles are spread across a weekend of camaraderie and chaos in the East Texas Pines!
Team Austin and San Antonio are the four time defending champs and look to make 2025 year five of domination!
Josh Donelson will be our Master of Ceremonies, while Omar Mujahid and Heston Heller return as Team Austin/SA Captains and Zach Sewill returns as Team Houston Captain
Where/When
The 2025 Texas Cup will be hosted at Pine Dunes Resort & Golf Club in Frankston, TX the weekend of March 28-30, 2025
Rules
Traditional Ryder Cup Rules with slight scheduling tweaks in order to make it work between 3 teams, where each team plays equal amounts of teams from the other two cities in each session:
Friday: Practice Round Free-for-all
Saturday Fourballs: 2-man teams in a Best Ball match where the handicap is wheeled off the low index in the group. 9 points up for grabs in the session, with the max achievable being 6pts for a single team.
Greensomes: 2-man modified Alt-Shot where both players hit their tee shots, and then the team selects which ball to play the remainder of the hole with in Alternate Shot fashion. Teams must use 3 tee shots from each player on each 9. 9 points up for grabs in the session, with the max achievable being 6pts for a single team.
Sunday Singles: 18 head-to-head singles matches, where grudge matches are highly encouraged, and 12 points are up for grab for each team!
