My Dig into Mexico Open History
Alright, so I got curious about the Mexico Open the other day. You know, the golf tournament. I wanted to see who’s actually won this thing in the past. It’s not one of those majors everyone knows by heart, so I figured I’d have to do a little digging.
First thing I did, naturally, was just hop on my computer. Opened up a search engine, you know the drill. I typed in something straightforward like “mexico open past results” or maybe it was “mexico open previous winners”. Can’t recall exactly, but something simple like that.
Got a whole slew of results back, as you’d expect. Sports news sites, the main tour website, maybe even some betting sites, I skipped those. I tend to trust the official sources more, so I looked for the PGA Tour site first. Seemed like the most direct place to get the real info.
Found their site, then had to poke around a bit. Sometimes finding the history section isn’t super obvious. Looked for stuff like “Tournaments”, “Schedule”, or “Results”. Eventually, I landed on the specific page for the Mexico Open.
Once I was on the tournament’s page, I hunted for a link or tab labeled “History”, “Past Champions”, or something similar. Clicked on that. Bingo. Started seeing lists of previous years.
Finding the Actual Winners
Okay, so now I was getting somewhere. I saw a list, usually year by year.
- I scrolled down, looking at the recent years first.
- Saw Jon Rahm’s name pop up for 2022. Remembered that one.
- Then saw Tony Finau for 2023. Yep, that sounded right too.
Some sites just give you the winner’s name. Others are better, they give you the score, maybe who came second. I prefer seeing the scores, gives you a better picture of how the tournament went down. I checked a couple of different sources, like maybe a big sports network site too, just to cross-reference and see if I could get more details like the final scores or the runner-up.
It’s worth noting, I realized the tournament hasn’t always been a PGA Tour event in its current form, or at least its prominence has shifted. So, I focused mostly on the recent history since it became a regular PGA Tour stop at Vidanta Vallarta. That seemed most relevant to what people are usually talking about now.
So, the process was basically:
- Simple web search.
- Go to official tour site or major sports news site.
- Navigate to the specific tournament page.
- Find the ‘History’ or ‘Past Results’ section.
- Scan the list of winners, maybe note down scores if available.
Took a few minutes of clicking around, navigating menus, but eventually, I got the list I wanted. Wasn’t rocket science, just needed to know where to look. Got the recent winners sorted out, which was my main goal. Pretty straightforward stuff once you get going.
