Rickie Fowler, who is currently ranked 26th in the world, further bolsters a field that already includes World No. 1, Rory McIlroy. Other top-ranked players scheduled to compete are Abraham Ancer (No. 29) and Lee Westwood (No. 30).
Corey Conners, who last year held on for a two-stroke win over 2016 VTO champion Charley Hoffman, will return to defend his title.

Among them are Andrew Landry (2018), Kevin Chappell (2017), Hoffman (2016), local star and major champion Jimmy Walker (2015), Martin Laird (2013), Brendan Steele (2011) and two-time major champion and two-time Valero Texas Open winner Zach Johnson (2008 & 2009).
