Interestingly, the World Wide Technology Championship also holds high prominence due to its association with the legendary golfer Tiger Woods.

The El Cardonal Golf Course at Diamante was originally designed by Woods, and it's the first of its kind. The course opened in 2014 and is influenced by the playing style of the PGA Tour winner.


The WWT Championship will include a field of exceptional golfers

The PGA Tour is undoubtedly known for its golf brilliance and class. Therefore, there’s no doubt that the WWT Championship will have exceptional golfers on the field. However, the lineup for the PGA Tour event in Mexico is quite interesting.

Ludvig Aberg will make his return to the Tour following a breakthrough performance at the Ryder Cup. The Swedish golfer will be looking for his maiden PGA Tour victory.

On the other hand, he will be competing with Cameron Young, who was overlooked by captain Zach Johnson for the Ryder Cup team.

Young is also the highest-rated player on the field for the championship. Another golfer who will strive for a win is Sahith Theegala, who just secured his maiden PGA Tour title at the Fortinet Championship and is on a roll currently.
