+4.51. That’s defending champion Brian Campbell’s Strokes Gained Tee-to-Green on par 3s en route to the title, the highest of any player in the field. He and Jacob Bridgeman played those holes in a cumulative score of 6 under par last year.

3 names to keep an eye on at the VidantaWorld Mexico Open 2026

Tony Finau. It’s been a disappointing season for Finau but he did earn $1 million for charity by holing a putt on the basketball court during a Utah Jazz halftime promotion last week and he’s got a great track record at Vidanta, including a win in 2023. 

Alvaro Ortiz. The 30-year-old native of Guadalajara, Mexico, earned a promotion to the PGA Tour for the 2027 season. He’ll get a head start this week at his nation’s open championship and at a course that he grew up playing frequently in his youth.

Brian Campbell. Notched his first of two PGA Tour titles at Vidanta last season. Campbell is making his first start of the FedEx Cup Fall and first since the Wyndham Championship in August, where he missed the cut. The former Illini’s best finish in 23 starts this season is a T-24 at the Masters.
