Mexico Open History
This will be just the second ever Mexico Open at Vidanta but golf has a long history in Mexico.
The Abierto Mexicano de Golf from the Club de Golf Chapultepec got it’s start way back in 1944. Since then, the tournament has been sanctioned by multiple governing bodies. This includes the Tour de Las Americas and most recently the PGA Tour LatinoAmerica from 2013 – 2021 before becoming an official PGA Tour event last season.
