The 2023 WGC-Dell Technologies Match Play was the 24th and final WGC Match Play, played March 22–26 at Austin Country Club in Austin, Texas.

The field consisted of the top 64 available eligible players from the Official World Golf Ranking on March 13. A number of other players were in the top 64 but, having joined LIV Golf, were suspended by the PGA Tour and ineligible to compete.[1]

On March 6, 2023, tournament organizers and the PGA Tour announced that the 2023 event would be the last edition of WGC Match Play.[2][3]

Sam Burns won the event, beating Cameron Young, 6 and 5, in the final. In the morning semi-finals Burns beat world number 1 Scottie Scheffler while Young beat world number 3 Rory McIlroy, both matches going to extra holes.[4]
