Baitus Samee Mosque is a prominent Ahmadi Muslim mosque in Houston, in the U.S. state of Texas. It was developed in stages during 1998 to 2004; its doors opened in 2001 or 2002. It was conceived in the 1980s by Mirza Tahir Ahmad, fourth caliph of the Ahmadiyya faith, as one of five large mosque construction projects to be built in major United States cities, along with ones in Los Angeles, Chicago, and Washington, D.C. It is a leading mosque of Ahmadiyya in the United States. It is a 6,500 square feet (600 m2) mosque constructed for $1.5 million on a 5.5 acres (2.2 ha) site. Dedicated in March 2004, it has capacity for 1,000 worshippers, and was the result of "nearly 20 years of work by 500 members from Pakistan, Bangladesh, India, Nigeria and other countries", of a group which previously met in a community center. The mosque was built in stages, with its foundation laid in 1998 and with the congregation moving in during 2001. Houston mayor Bill White "thanked the Ahmadis for their part in enriching the community" and proclaimed March 27, 2004 to be "Ahmadiyya Muslim Community Day".The mosque has been a leader in interfaith dialogue and salient in the news: In 2010, it hosted a symposium of "Hindu, Buddhist, Jewish, Sikh, Zoroastrian, Christian and Muslim clergy" to respond to a Florida church's plans to burn the Koran on the anniversary of the September 11, 2001, attacks. The mosque led, nationally, in 2013 events of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community to address the topic of "Islamic innocence", by dialogue at the mosque and by hosting a conference at University of Houston, in response to the 2012 release of the controversial anti-Muslim film, Innocence of Muslims. On September 11, 2013, it hosted an interfaith prayer service, as part of its participation in the U.S. Ahmadiyya's annual "Muslims for Life" blood drive campaign in honor of 9/11 victims. The event was to include speakers from Houston Baptist University and from Lutheran, Jewish, Hindu, Jain, Sikh, and Zoroastrian faiths. In December 2015 it hosted an interfaith prayer vigil in response to the 2015 San Bernardino attack. Early in 2017, the mosque hosted the National Leadership Summit of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Youth Association, which addressed reaching out to other communities. In June 2017, in response to scattered rallies nation-wide raising spectres of female genital mutilation and Sharia law, the mosque was one of a number that hosted a counter-rally to call such fears unfounded and to present the idea, instead, that American Muslims in fact support American values and freedoms. An interfaith Iftar event was held at the mosque during Ramadan later in 2017.The mosque was visited by the current, fifth caliph of the world-wide Ahmadiyya community, Mirza Masroor Ahmad, in 2018. The caliph led prayers and delivered his Friday sermon. It was one of only four stops in the United States by the khalifa, before he would continue on to Guatemala. Guests were expected "from all over the Gulf Coast region and around the world" for the event, which was said to be comparable to a visit by the pope or the Dalai Lama.In 2019, the mosque was twice threatened online to be the site of a violent attack, with the sender citing the Christchurch mosque shootings in New Zealand in March 2019. This led to calls for increased security to be put into place in mosques across Texas. The Harris County Sheriff's Office and the FBI were investigating. This was three weeks after a man threatened to shoot up the mosque after he was asked to leave; the man was arrested.

Bammel is an unincorporated community in Harris County, Texas, United States. Bammel, eighteen miles north of downtown Houston at the intersection of Farm-to-Market Road 1960 (FM 1960) and Kuykendahl Road in north central Harris County, was established after the neighboring towns of Klein, Westfield, and Spring. It was named for Charles Bammel, a German Houstonian who built the Bammel and Kuehnle Merchandise store with his partner in 1915 and moved to the community for health reasons. A Bammel post office, for which Herman Kuehnle was the first postmaster, operated from 1916 until 1929. Bammel's store burned in 1927 but was later rebuilt to serve the new Bammel Forest subdivision. The town's population was reported as roughly fifty from 1929 until oil was discovered in the area in 1938. In 1943, the community reported two stores and a population of 200, but in 1949 its population was estimated at twenty. During the 1980s Bammel's residents were mainly commuters who worked in Houston. The community included two shopping centers, several schools, a hospital, and nearby cemeteries.

Champions Golf Club is a 36-hole private golf club located in Houston, Texas. Established in 1957 by multiple major champions Jack Burke Jr. and Jimmy Demaret, who were both raised in the city, Champions carries a long history for Houston golf. Burke (b.1923) won the Masters and PGA Championship in 1956 and Demaret (1910–1983) was the first to win three Masters (1940, 1947, 1950). The Cypress Creek course was designed by Ralph Plummer and opened for play 64 years ago in 1959. It was the site of the 1967 Ryder Cup, 1969 U.S. Open, five PGA Tour Championships, and the U.S. Amateur in 1993. It also hosted the Houston Champions International on the PGA Tour five times, which is now the Houston Open. In 2018, the Cypress Creek course temporarily closed for a renovation in advance of hosting the 2020 US Women's Open. The renovation was completed by architect Chet Williams, known for his work across Texas including the design of Whispering Pines Golf Club in Trinity, TX. The second course is the Jackrabbit course, which is used in qualifying rounds for the various USGA Championships the club has hosted, while Cypress Creek is the primary tournament venue. In 2020, golfers for the U. S. Women's Open played the first or second round at Jackrabbit with the other rounds at Cypress Creek because of the December tournament date caused by a global pandemic. The Jackrabbit course opened in 1964 and was designed by George Fazio, later renovated by nephew Tom Fazio. The competitive course record at Cypress Creek is held by Chad Campbell, who shot a 10-under-par 61 in the third round en route to winning the Tour Championship in 2003, the last held at Champions.

At age 35, Moody advanced through both local and sectional qualifying in 1969, and as of 2021 is the last champion to do so. It was his only win on the PGA Tour, with only one additional top-10 finish in a major, two months later at the PGA Championship. Battling an ailing knee, defending champion Lee Trevino (of Texas) missed the cut by a stroke; he won the title again in 1971.
