WGC-Mexico Championship, Professional golf tournament in Naucalpan de Juárez, Mexico
The WGC-Mexico Championship is a professional golf tournament held annually in Mexico that brings together the world's best players. The event takes place over four days and draws fans from many countries who come to watch top-ranked competitors face off.
The tournament was founded in 1999 and was initially part of an international golf series in Europe before being moved to Mexico in 2017. This relocation made it a major golf competition on the American continent.
The tournament brings international professional golf to Mexico, drawing spectators from across North America to witness top-ranked players compete at highest levels.
The best spots to watch are typically around the greens and fairways where you can see the players clearly. Since the tournament takes place at high elevation, you should prepare for the altitude and stay hydrated.
The elevation of about 7,900 feet above sea level significantly affects play, as the ball travels farther than at lower elevations. This condition makes the tournament a particular challenge for players accustomed to courses at standard heights.
