Mexico Championship at Vidanta
April 27, 2023 8:00 am EDT
This week, the PGA Tour travels to the beautiful shores of Mexico for the 2023 Mexico Championship at Vidanta.
Before I dive into my favorite golf bet for the 2023 Mexico Championship at Vidanta let’s take a quick look at the golf course the field will play and the key player statistics that I feel are the most vital to a golfer’s success this week.
The 2023 Mexico Championship will be played at the Vidanta Nuevo Vallarta Greg Norman Signature Course in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. The golf course is a par 71 that measures approximately 7,456 yards. In my opinion, this track is best described as a long resort style coastal course that should be vulnerable to low scores.
The main defense of this golf course is wind. Having stated that, keep an eye on the weather forecast closer to the start of the tournament before placing your wagers.
The key player statistics that I will be focusing on this week are GIR (greens in regulation), strokes gained ball striking, and strokes gained putting.
Here is a golfer to consider placing on your card to finish in the top 20.
Chez Reavie +275
The 41 year old American arrives at this week’s event on the heels of two consecutive top 11 finishes on the PGA Tour, including an impressive sixth place result at the 2023 Valero Texas Open earlier this month.
In relation to this week’s current listed 2023 Mexico Championship at Vidanta field, in the last eight rounds played on the PGA Tour, Chez Reavie ranks fifth in bogey avoidance, 15th in GIR (greens in regulation), and third in strokes gained ball striking.
It should also be noted that Chez Reavie finished 13th at the 2022 Mexico Championship at Vidanta.
