They battled through four holes of sudden-death with Allenby winning with a par. It marked the longest playoff ever on the TPC at The Woodlands and was Allenby's first PGA TOUR victory. Defending champion Stuart Appleby, who missed the cut, stayed to cheer his boyhood friend the final two rounds. Allenby became the fifth Australian to win in Houston, joining Bruce Devlin (1972), Bruce Crampton (1973 & 1975), David Graham (1983) and Appleby (1999).  2001 In a gritty, fist-pumping performance, Hal Sutton came from two strokes off the pace in a windy final round to claim a two-shot victory over Joe Durant and Lee Janzen. Sutton shot 70-68-71-69, including a birdie on No. 17 the final round, for a 10-under-par 278 total. His closing 69 was one of only five rounds in the sixties on Sunday. The $612,000 first-place paycheck elevated Sutton to the top of the tournament's all-time money list with more than $1,165,000.  2002 March 31 Vijay Singh established a new scoring record at 22-under-poar in the final Shell Houston Open to be played on the Tournament Players Course at The Woodlands. Singh posted rounds of 67-65-66-68 to break the existing record that had stood for 14 years by four strokes. Singh's margin of victory matched the six strokes that Jack Burke Jr. won by 50 years earlier in 1952. It was the largest margin of victory ever posted on the TPC at The Woodlands.  2003 February 7 Houston Golf Association moved into new office space on the first floor of a new two-story building adjacent to Redstone Golf Club. HGA constructed a new facilities structure. April 27 Fred Couples became the first University of Houston alum to win Houston's PGA TOUR event.

Singh would win the next week at New Orleans, which also finished on Monday due to rain. The 41-year-old native of Fiji would go on to win nine tournaments, including the PGA Championship, lead the money list with a record $10,905,066 and earn PGA TOUR Player-of-The-Year honors.  2005 April 24 Vijay Singh became the first repeat winner in Houston by defeating John Daly in sudden-death on what would be the final Shell Houston Open played on the Members Course at Redstone Golf Club. With the victory Singh (2002, 2004, 2005) joined Curtis Strange (1980, 1986, 1988) as a three-time champion. Singh shot 64-71-70-70 for a 13-under-par 275 total, narrowly missing a birdie on the final hole. Daly shot 68-67-73-67 and whipped the crowd into a frenzy by making birdie on the final two holes to deadlock with the defending champion. Singh won on the first extra hole when Daly put his tee shot into the lake on the left side of the fairway. The tournament had a bit of international flavor with Spaniard Jose Maria Olazabal finishing third and Northern Ireland's Darren Clark finishing in a tie for fourth. Jack Burke, 1952 and 1959 champion, added to the celebration by splitting the fairway with a ceremonial tee shot to mark the PGA TOUR's Drive for a Billion promotion.
