Worldwide Technology Championship at Mayakoba:…

Mexico is this week’s destination for the PGA Tour, as the players head to The Mayakoba Resort.

After a stop in Bermuda, it’s now a journey to Mexico, as the PGA Tour’s shoulder season continues.

While there was only one player in the top-50 of the OWGR in the field last week, eventual winner Seamus Power, there’s a healthy field gathered here. Scottie Scheffler, Collin Morikawa and Tony Finau are all in Mexico this week.

Last year, it was Viktor Hovland who was victorious at the Greg Norman designed course, a successful defence of his title. He’ll be looking to make it three for three, a feat no one has achieved on the PGA Tour since Steve Stricker won his third straight John Deere Classic in 2011. 

The course at El Camaleon has hosted the event since 2007, the first year it was played. World Wide Technology are set to sponsor the event until at least 2027, but whether Greg Norman’s course will continue to host it is another story.

Let’s take a closer look at all the details ahead of the week.
