The 2025 Genesis Invitational concluded last week, and the PGA Tour will now move to Mexico for the 2025 Mexico Open. However, as the signature event concluded last week, the 2025 Mexico Open will not feature prominent names that competed last week at Torrey Pines.

Prominent names like Scottie Scheffler, Rory McIlroy, Justin Thomas, Collin Morikawa and last week's champion, Ludvig Aberg, will miss the 2025 Mexico Open.

Scottie Scheffler had a decent outing last week as he finished T3 for the event, while Rory McIlroy finished T17, Justin Thomas T9 and Collin Morikawa T17. So all these top golfers had a great outing at Genesis Invitational but unfortunately, they will not be competing in the Mexico Open this week.

The 2025 Mexico Open will begin on February 20th at VidantaWorld Golf Course in Vidanta Nuevo Nayarit-Vallarta. There are 132 golfers in the field this week who will compete to receive the highest share from the $8.5 million prize money purse.

Despite prominent golfers missing out on the 2025 Mexico Open, the field has youngsters like Akshay Bhatia and Aaron Rai, along with experienced golfers like Padraig Harrington, Ryan Fox, CT Pan and others.
