This week's Texas Open is the last event on the PGA Tour schedule ahead of the Masters at Augusta National -- the first major championship of 2022 -- and contains both a good field in addition to solid prep work for a week from now. There are myriad storylines to follow throughout the week, including Jordan Spieth's bid to try and repeat as Texas Open champion after he won for the first time in nearly four years last year at TPC San Antonio.

But after two rounds, it's Ryan Palmer who's taken the lead on the field, while big names like Rory McIlroy and Bryson DeChambeau missed the cut after tough outings through the first couple of days. Last year's Masters winner, Hideki Matsuyama, had to withdraw due to a sore neck. 

While everyone will have Augusta in the back of their minds this week, this tournament should still be terrific and could either produce a new Masters favorite -- like it did last year with Spieth -- or a final Masters spot for somebody who's not already in the field. Either would be meaningful, and should make this tournament must-see TV all weekend long.
