WGC-Dell Technologies Match Play golf tournament will not return to Austin after 2023

2023 WGC Dell Match Play tournament will be the last

Officials of the WGC Dell Match Play tournament announce this year's event will be the last.

AUSTIN, Texas - The World Golf Championships-Dell Technologies Match Play will not return to Austin after this year.

Jordan Uppleger, the tournament’s executive director, made the announcement Monday morning.

"It was determined that a 64 player event didn’t fit the confines of the schedule," Uppleger said. "There’s really not another reason than that. I think it’s a special week for our players. I’m sure they’re going to miss a lot of the components to that. It may not fit in (next year's) schedules, but we’re definitely going to be looking back at Austin, Texas and figuring out a way to come back."

The tournament has been played at the Austin Country Club seven times in the last eight years. The 2020 event was canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

This year's tournament will be held March 22-26.
