Celebrating Latin American Golf
Since its inception in 2022, the México Open has been a fantastic platform for Latin American players, providing them the chance to shine on a grand stage. This year, an impressive number of 31 golfers from the region, including six amateurs, will be competing. At least eight Mexican golfers are confirmed to take part, showcasing the country’s rich golfing talent.
Meet the Local Stars
Among these local talents is Rodolfo Cazaubón, a veteran at 34 who has made a name for himself with four victories on the PGA Tour Latinoamérica circuit. He even snagged the title of Latinoamérica Player of the Year in 2015. Another prominent player to watch is Sebastián Vázquez from Mexico City, who is dreaming big and hoping for a life-changing tournament after previously tying for 55th with two solid rounds of 67.
Last Year’s Champions and Tournament History
Last year’s tournament saw Tony Finau walk away with the top honors, earning $1.39 million! His impressive performance was characterized by remarkably low scores, as he boasted rounds of 66 or less. The 2022 title was claimed by none other than Jon Rahm, who clinched victory just one stroke ahead of Finau. Rahm, a force to be reckoned with who has since joined the Saudi-backed LIV Golf tour, is recognized for his exceptional skills, having won multiple major titles.
A Beautiful Setting
The tournament is set in the picturesque Vidanta Nuevo Vallarta resort, designed by the legendary Greg Norman. This par 71 course offers not only a challenging experience for players but breathtaking views as well, creating an unforgettable setting for both competitors and spectators.
