Mexican Open (golf)

The Mexican Open (), also known as the Mexico Open and Abierto Mexicano de Golf, is the national open golf tournament of Mexico.

History First played in 1944 at the Club de Golf Chapultepec, it was an event on the Tour de las Américas between 2003 and 2006, being co-sanctioned by the European Challenge Tour from 2004 to 2006. It became a Nationwide Tour event in 2008, and was rescheduled from December to January, which resulted in no tournament in 2007. Due to the outbreak of swine flu in 2009, the Mexican Open was rescheduled from May to September. In 2013, the tournament was moved to March and became an official event for PGA Tour Latinoamérica. The tournament was also moved to Club de Golf Mexico.

In 2022, the tournament became an official event on the PGA Tour, with a purse of $7,300,000 and awarding 500 FedEx Cup points to the winner.

The official name of the 2026 event is the VidantaWorld Mexico Open and will take place at the VidantaWorld course in Vallarta-Nuevo Nayarit, Mexico. The event will be held between October 29 – November 1, 2026 and feature a competitive field of 132 players competing for a purse of US$6,000,000 and 500 FedexCup Fall points. In advance of the competition, the course at Vallarta-Nuevo Nayarit, designed by Greg Norman, underwent an extensive program of improvements. Traditionally part of the PGA Tour early-season schedule, the Mexico Open was played in late April/early May during its first two PGA Tour seasons (2022–2023) and later in February (such as in 2025). For the 2026 season, the tournament was moved to a late October–early November time slot on the PGA Tour calendar. There were multiple reasons behind the move including coinciding the event with the grand opening of VidantaWorld Bon Theme Park, the launch of the Cirque du Soleil show "Ludo" at VidantaWorld and for cultural alignment with the Dia de Muertos, which takes place at the end of October.
