If you’re headed to the Byron Nelson golf tournament, well, you’re gonna need to know about parking, ain’t ya? This thing takes place over at the TPC Craig Ranch in McKinney, Texas, and folks come from all around, so let’s get right down to it. I’ll tell you how to get there, where to park, and what you can and can’t bring.
First thing’s first: where ya park
Now, if you’re one of them folks with a Cadillac, you got yourself a real good deal. You can pull right up to North Lake College in Irving, at Lot 6, and they’ll let ya park for free. Ain’t that nice? And here’s the best part: there’s a Cadillac shuttle that’ll take ya right to the entrance on Byron Nelson Way. Real fancy stuff!
For everyone else, general parking is about nine miles away over at Fair Park. Don’t worry; they got shuttles running back and forth. Just hop on the shuttle, and it’ll take ya straight to the tournament grounds. Easy peasy, don’t need to worry ‘bout getting lost. And if you bought a pack of four tickets, they’re nice enough to give ya a complimentary parking pass for that Lot 6 spot too. So, get a group together, and you got yourself free parking!
What ya can and can’t bring in
Now, here’s where things get a bit strict, so listen up. They don’t let just any ol’ bag through those gates. If you’re thinking of carrying a big ol’ backpack or even a big camera bag, forget it. Ain’t allowed. Bags gotta be no bigger than 6 inches by 6 inches. If you’re bringing a bigger carry item, like maybe a clear plastic bag, well, that one can go up to 12 by 6 by 12 inches. But anything bigger than that? Nope, they’ll make you leave it behind.
Other than that, keep an eye on the PGA TOUR Prohibited Items list, just so you don’t bring anything that might be against the rules. They got rules, you know, for all sorts of things, so best to check ahead of time.
Watching from home or on the go
Can’t make it in person? Well, you’re in luck because the Golf Channel and CBS will be airing the tournament. And if you like watching on the go, ESPN+ has got you covered too. So, even if you’re not right there at Craig Ranch, you won’t miss a thing.
When’s it all happening?
Mark your calendars, folks! The ATT Byron Nelson Championship runs from May 11 to May 14. Get ready for some big golfing action right in Texas. There’ll be more than just golfing, too. This here event’s got all sorts of entertainment lined up, so you’ll have a good time even if golf ain’t your thing.
How to get there
Now, if you’re driving yourself, make sure you’ve got the right directions, alright? TPC Craig Ranch sits out there in McKinney, Texas, and that’s where all the action’s gonna be. GPS coordinates? They say it’s around 33.141N 96.720W, but I reckon most folks these days just punch “TPC Craig Ranch” into their phone maps and get right there.
Final words of wisdom
Well, that’s about all you need to know to get yourself to the Byron Nelson. Keep your bags small, remember your parking spots, and if you’re in a Cadillac, don’t miss out on that free parking at North Lake College. Enjoy the tournament, bring some friends, and maybe pack some sunscreen—Texas sun can be mighty strong in May.
Happy golfing!
