Our Picks For Mexico Open At Vidanta 2024

🕰️ The Mexico Open at Vidanta unfolds in Puerto Vallarta from today until February 25, 2024.

💰 This tournament is not only a significant golf event but also offers a substantial purse of US $8.1 million, with the winner securing 500 FedEx Cup points and a top prize of $1.5 million.

🏌🏻 The field will feature 144 players from around the globe, converging on the Greg Norman-designed course at the Vidanta Nuevo Vallarta resort. This course is recognized for its challenging par 71 layout​​​​.

⛳ Background: Last year's champion, Tony Finau, showcased an exceptional performance, demonstrating the importance of strong scoring across all four days. Jon Rahm, a previous winner (2022) and one of golf's top players, now participates in the LIV Golf tour but his past successes at this venue underline the caliber of talent the Mexico Open attracts.

Here are our top picks to bet on:

🚩 Most Likely to Win: Tony Finau (+800), who’s the defending champion at the Mexico Open who also T2 in 2022. Given his past performance at this tournament and his finishes in the last three PGA Tour starts, he’s our pick for the winner.

🚩 Key Player in the Top 5: Thomas Detry (+2500), who’s style, especially his strength off the tee aligns well with the challenges of the Vidanta course, making him a strong contender​ for a Top 5 finish.

🚩 Key Player in the Top 10: Nicolai Højgaard (+1600), who’s OWGR is 34 and has had respectable finishes in the last three events, is our pick to finish in the Top 10.

🚩 Key Player in the Top 20: Stephan Jaeger (+2200), who’s yet to win an event, is a prolific birdie maker and our pick to make it in the top 20.

🚩 Underdog with Potential: Taylor Pendrith (+2500), who’s yet to win an event, but has had two Top 10 finishes this year and three Top 10 finishes in his last five appearances.
