After the successful Genesis Invitational outing at the Riviera Country Club outside Los Angeles, the PGA Tour heads to Vidanta for the 2024 Mexico Open this week.

To be played in its originally intended slot, the event tees off at the Vidanta Vallarta Golf Course in Vallarta on Thursday, Feb. 22. The four-day event will feature a 132-player field.

Unlike the Genesis Invitational, the Mexico Open is not a signature event on the 2024 PGA Tour schedule. Despite being a regular outing, the tournament’s field features some big names and several regulars from the PGA Tour roster.

According to the circuit update, the event will have five of the top 50 in the Official World Golf Ranking among the top contenders.
