Will Davenport and Nick Maccario dominated the field to win the 2025 Champions Cup Invitational Four-Ball at Champions Golf Club, the Cypress Creek Course, in Houston, Tex.

Davenport and Maccario shot 20-under with rounds of 67-64-64 to blitz the field and win by eight shots.

Davenport is ranked No. 16 in the AmateurGolf.com Mid-Amateur Rankings.

Phil Arci/Simon McInnis and Liam Logan/Blake Vinson finished T2 at 12-under, and Kade Stewart/Josh Gibbons and Kristoffer Marshall/Jake Byrum finished T4 at 11-under to round out the top five.

Champions Golf Club was founded by Jack Burke, Jr., and the late Jimmy Demaret in 1957. Since then, Champions has consistently carved its place in golf history, hosting such prestigious events as the Ryder Cup Matches in 1967, the United States Open in 1969, and the PGA Tour Championship (five times, most recently in 2003).

The Cypress Creek course is worthy of the championships it has hosted. It is best known for its massive greens, which offer a myriad of hole locations and require precise iron play to create realistic chances for birdies. The 7th green alone is over 70 yards deep.

Champions epitomize the "tough but fair" design philosophy that ruled at the time it was designed--there are no pushover holes, every shot is well-defended, and a good score must be earned. The course is not without its thrilling shots, however, as evidenced at the par-3 4th (where Ben Hogan famously made a 9 during his last competition on the PGA Tour), the all-carry 8th and 12th, and the bite-off-as-much-as-you-dare tee shots on the par-5 9th and 13th.

The club has an impressive number of low handicaps and a strong sense of its place in the history of Texas golf. The clubhouse setting is ideal for tournament golf, with the huge putting green, practice tee, 1st and 10th tees, and 9th and 18th greens all within view from the clubhouse. To top it all off, Champions also has one of the best locker rooms in golf.

ABOUT THE Champions Cup Invitational

Champions is Jack Burke's club, and the Champions Cup is his invitational tournament. This is a special place, full of history and worthy of the championships it has hosted, which include the Ryder Cup, U.S. Open, U.S Amateur, U.S. Mid- Amateur and multiple Tour Championships. The Champions Cup is a 72-hole four-ball event with no cut. It is a very popular tournament that attracts a very strong, competitive national field. To be considered for entry, players must maintain a maximum USGA handicap of 3, be at least 25 years old and submit playing accomplishments to be considered. Walking is required but long pants are no longer mandatory. Contestants are urged to stay at the homes of Champions members (at no cost), but can arrange their own accommodations if desiring to do so. The tournament formerly required both contestants to be from the same state but has since waived that requirement.
