Expert Picks: 2025 Mexico Open

DeepDiveGolf - David Bieleski 2 months ago

written by DeepDiveGolf - David Bieleski

The PGA Tour returns to Mexico this week for the 2025 Mexico Open at VidantaWorld, running from February 20 to 23 at the Vidanta Vallarta Course in Vallarta, Mexico.

This marks the fourth consecutive year the tournament has been held at this Greg Norman-designed course, renowned for its scenic views along the Ameca River and the Sierra Madre mountains. The par-71 course stretches over 7,436 yards, featuring wide fairways and large greens that promise an exciting challenge for the players.

The tournament boasts a $7 million purse, with the winner set to take home $1.26 million and earn 500 FedExCup points.

While some top-ranked players are absent this week, the field remains competitive, highlighted by Akshay Bhatia and Rasmus Højgaard. Defending champion Jake Knapp also returns, aiming to replicate his success from last year. Notably, Australian rookie Karl Vilips will make his season debut, becoming the first PGA Tour golfer to sign with Tiger Woods’ Sun Day Red clothing line. Vilips, a former Stanford standout, is eager to showcase his skills while donning the new apparel.

The Vidanta Vallarta Course is known for its generous fairways and minimal rough, favoring powerful drivers. Players like Rasmus Højgaard and Aldrich Potgieter, both averaging over 318 yards off the tee, can utilize their unbridled power with abandon.

With a blend of seasoned professionals and emerging talents, the 2025 Mexico Open at VidantaWorld promises an exciting week of golf in a picturesque setting.

Expert Picks: 2025 Genesis Invitational

DeepDiveGolf - David Bieleski 2 months ago

written by DeepDiveGolf - David Bieleski

The 2025 Genesis Invitational boasts a substantial prize purse of $20 million, with the winner set to receive $4 million. This elevated purse underscores the tournament’s status as a premier event on the PGA Tour, with the Genesis Invitational one of just eight Signature Events in 2025.

The field includes top-ranked players such as Scottie Scheffler and Rory McIlroy. McIlroy, fresh off a victory at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am, is considered a strong contender. Defending champion Hideki Matsuyama is also in the field, aiming to retain his title.

Why has the Genesis Invitational moved to Torrey Pines?

The 2025 Genesis Invitational, traditionally held at Riviera Country Club in Los Angeles, has been relocated this year to Torrey Pines Golf Course in San Diego due to the devastating wildfires in the Los Angeles area. The Pacific Palisades, where Riviera Country Club is located, were particularly hard hit by the fires.

The decision was made to ensure the safety of players, staff, and spectators, as well as to maintain the high standards of the event. With the unique challenges posed by the wildfires, including air quality concerns and potential damage to the region, Torrey Pines in San Diego offers a suitable alternative.

This course has hosted numerous prestigious tournaments, including the U.S. Open, and provides a world-class setting for this iconic PGA Tour event. Also residing in California, the tournament represents a great opportunity to raise funds for relief efforts.

Course Analysis

The tournament will be contested on Torrey Pines’ South Course, renowned for its challenging layout and scenic beauty. This course has a storied history, hosting the Farmers Insurance Open since 1968 and major championships in the U.S. Open. This included the 2008 iconic playoff battle, where Tiger Woods willed himself to victory over Rocco Mediate with a torn ACL and two stress fractures in his leg.

Players will face a par-72 layout stretching approximately 7,765 yards, featuring narrow fairways, thick rough, and fast greens. The course’s coastal location introduces variable winds, adding to its difficulty. Notable holes include the par-3 16th, known for its cliffside green. The par-5 18th offers a challenging finish, with anything from birdie to double bogey or worse possible.

Expert Picks

The 2025 Genesis Invitational promises to be a compelling tournament, combining the challenges of Torrey Pines with a competitive field and a significant prize purse.

Expert Picks: 2025 WM Phoenix Open

DeepDiveGolf - David Bieleski 2 months ago

written by DeepDiveGolf - David Bieleski

The PGA TOUR heads to the Arizona desert this week for one of the most exciting events of the season—the WM Phoenix Open at TPC Scottsdale. Known as “The Greatest Show on Grass” and “The People’s Open”, this tournament is famous for its raucous crowds and thrilling finishes.

Then, of course, there is the infamous par-3 16th hole, where thousands of fans create an electric stadium-like atmosphere. Those crowd were sent into raptures here in 1997, when Tiger Woods created one of his many iconic moments:

Here is Tiger’s recollection of that famous hole-in-one, along with his tale of receiving a great assist from the fans in shifting a “moveable obstruction”:

Defending Champion and Key Contenders

Nick Taylor returns to defend his title after a dramatic playoff victory over Charley Hoffman in 2024. Taylor, who also secured a win at the Sony Open in Hawaii earlier this season, aims to continue his impressive recent form.

World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler, a two-time Phoenix Open champion (2022 and 2023), is a strong favorite. After recovering from a hand injury sustained during the holiday season, Scheffler showcased his resilience with a top-10 finish at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am.

Other notable participants include Hideki Matsuyama, a two-time winner at TPC Scottsdale and victor of the season-opening Sentry Tournament, and Justin Thomas, who boasts seven consecutive top-20 finishes at this venue.

Course Overview & Key Stats

TPC Scottsdale, a par-71 course measuring 7,261 yards, has been the tournament’s home since 1987.

The wide fairways play firm, perhaps especially so this year with little rain in 12 months. Combined with fairly benign rough mean, you can pull driver here readily. However, extra distance isn’t a huge asset given the rollout obtained from firm conditions. The main thing off the tee is to avoid the big miss to prevent finding a stray cactus or a watery grave.

It only take a cursory glance at previous leaderboards to realise a couple things. Firstly, with several multiple winners here, that course history is stickier here than most venues. Secondly, that this is a course dominated by good ball strikers.

Particularly key is SG:APP 150-200 yards. Golfers will see between 8-9 approach shots on average within that range. These green complexes double in size compared to last week’s Pebble Beach, with an average over 7,000 sq ft. They are often multi-tiered as well. This sees an increased importance on not just finding the green, but the right area and shelf on the surfaces.

Names such as Scheffler, Matsuyama, Koepka, Fowler, Thomas, and Mickelson all point to some of the best iron players on the Tour. Your approach is the way to separate yourself from the pack at TPC Scottsdale.

Putting does receive a higher weighting at this course. The combination of needing to lag putt, avoid three-putts, and make your birdie opportunities is imperative. However, a notable number of “Team No Putt” have managed to find success on these relatively fast surfaces.

Comp Courses

TPC Scottsdale, TPC Summerlin, TPC Craig Ranch, Colonial Country Club, TPC San Antonio, Black Desert Resort and the American Express rotation courses.

Expert Picks

As on of the most enjoyable events on the PGA Tour, the 2025 WM Phoenix Open promises to provide an entertaining and exciting tournament.

Expert Picks: 2025 AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am

DeepDiveGolf - David Bieleski 2 months ago

written by DeepDiveGolf - David Bieleski

The signature event at Pebble Beach is fast approaching, and with a prize purse of a staggering $20 million, anticipation is at an all-time high. Held on the iconic Pebble Beach Golf Links along California’s rugged coastline, this event consistently draws the best golfers in the world, offering a spectacular combination of world-class competition and breathtaking scenery. The tournament has earned its place as a marquee event on the PGA Tour calendar, and this year, the stakes are higher than ever.

The $20 million prize purse makes it one of the richest tournaments of the season, ensuring that both seasoned veterans and rising stars will be giving their all in the quest for glory. The course itself, known for its challenging layout and scenic views of the Pacific Ocean, will test every aspect of the players’ games, demanding precision off the tee, delicate approach shots, and nerves of steel on the greens. With the weather conditions along the coast often unpredictable, players will need to be adaptable and prepared for anything the elements may throw their way.

Beyond the golf, the Pebble Beach event is also known for its glamorous atmosphere, attracting celebrities, socialites, and golf enthusiasts from around the globe. Whether you’re watching from the fairways or tuning in from home, the event promises unforgettable moments, both on and off the course. As the countdown continues, all eyes will be on Pebble Beach to see who rises to the occasion and takes home a share of the impressive $20 million purse.

Expert Picks: 2025 Farmers Insurance Open

DeepDiveGolf - David Bieleski 3 months ago

written by DeepDiveGolf - David Bieleski

The PGA Tour continues its course-rotation season with the Farmers Insurance Open, held at the iconic Torrey Pines Golf Course in La Jolla, California. As one of the premier stops on the Tour, this event always delivers a compelling mix of breathtaking scenery, a challenging course, and a star-studded field. This used to traditionally be where Tiger Woods would start his PGA Tour season, leading to a raft of top talent including it in their regular rotation.

The Course: Torrey Pines South and North

The tournament is played across two courses during the opening rounds: the North and South Courses. However, the focus shifts exclusively to the demanding South Course for the weekend. Torrey Pines South, a 7,765-yard par 72 layout, is a true test of skill with its narrow fairways, penal rough, and undulating greens. Additionally, its coastal location brings the ever-present challenge of swirling winds.

The North Course, while slightly shorter at 7,258 yards, offers players a chance to go low in the opening rounds with wider fairways and less punishing greens. Scoring well here is critical for contenders to stay in the mix heading into the weekend.

Expert Picks: Tour Championship

DeepDiveGolf - David Bieleski 7 months ago

written by DeepDiveGolf - David Bieleski

The Tour Championship, the grand finale of the PGA Tour season, brings together the top 30 players in the FedExCup standings to compete for the coveted FedExCup title. Held at East Lake Golf Club in Atlanta, this event features a unique format where starting strokes are applied based on each player’s position in the standings.

The leader in the FedExCup begins the tournament at 10-under par, followed by the second-place player at 8-under, and so on, down to the players ranked 26th-30th, who start at even par. This staggered start rewards season-long performance while keeping the competition tight.

To add to the pressure, East Lake has undergone a full renovation over the last 12 months with significant changes to the golf course. Players will need to navigate the challenging layout of East Lake while managing the pressure of the starting strokes, making every shot count in their quest for the season-long crown.

Expert Picks: BMW Championship

DeepDiveGolf - David Bieleski 8 months ago

written by DeepDiveGolf - David Bieleski

The BMW Championship is set to make its much-anticipated return, this time hosted at the prestigious Castle Pines Golf Club in Colorado. This venue, known for its breathtaking views and challenging layout, promises to provide a thrilling backdrop for one of the PGA Tour’s marquee events.

Course Overview

Castle Pines Golf Club is a Jack Nicklaus-designed masterpiece nestled in the foothills of the Rocky Mountains. The course is renowned for its dramatic elevation changes, undulating fairways, and pristine greens. The altitude will play a significant role, as the thin air at nearly 6,400 feet above sea level will allow the ball to travel further, adding an extra layer of strategy for the players.

The layout at Castle Pines is as picturesque as it is demanding, with a combination of tight fairways lined with Ponderosa pines and expansive vistas that can distract even the most focused golfers. The course features several risk-reward holes, including the par-5 17th, which could prove decisive in the final round.

The Field

The BMW Championship traditionally attracts the top players from around the world, and this year will be no exception. As the second event in the FedExCup Playoffs, the tournament will feature the top 50 players in the standings, all vying for a spot in the season-ending TOUR Championship.

Defending champion Patrick Cantlay will be one to watch, as he has a knack for performing well in high-stakes situations. However, he’ll face stiff competition from the likes of world No. 1 Scottie Scheffler, who has been in scintillating form this season.

Another notable contender is Viktor Hovland, whose recent rise in form makes him a dark horse. With so much on the line, expect to see a tightly contested battle as the world’s best vie for playoff positioning.

Key Storylines

Course Familiarity: Castle Pines hasn’t hosted a PGA Tour event since The International in 2006. As a result, many of the younger players in the field will be seeing the course for the first time in competition.

Altitude Adjustment: The impact of playing at high altitude cannot be overstated. Players will need to adjust their yardages, particularly on approach shots, and will need to manage their energy levels carefully in the thin air. Those who can quickly adapt to these conditions may find themselves with an advantage.

FedExCup Implications: With only the top 30 players advancing to the TOUR Championship, the BMW Championship is crucial for those on the bubble. Expect to see plenty of aggressive play from those looking to secure their spot in the final event of the season.

Expert Picks: FedEx St Jude Championship

DeepDiveGolf - David Bieleski 8 months ago

written by DeepDiveGolf - David Bieleski

The FedEx St. Jude Championship marks the beginning of the FedExCup Playoffs, bringing together the top 70 players from the PGA Tour’s season-long points race. Set at TPC Southwind in Memphis, Tennessee, this event promises intense competition on a course known for its strategic demands and challenging water hazards. Players like Scottie Scheffler, Xander Schauffele, and Rory McIlroy will be looking to solidify their standing as they chase the ultimate prize of the FedExCup, with crucial points on the line in this no-cut event. As the first playoff event, the St. Jude Championship sets the tone, with every stroke potentially making or breaking a player’s season. The top 50 after this week’s tournament qualify for the BMW Championship, as well as guaranteeing entry to all the big money Signature Events in 2025.

This year’s field is stacked with elite talent, all vying for a chance to advance to the BMW Championship and ultimately to the TOUR Championship in Atlanta. TPC Southwind’s tight fairways and small greens demand precision, making it a course where both ball-striking and short game skills are critical. The course has historically favored accurate players, but with so much on the line, expect the competition to be fierce from the first tee. Fans will be eagerly watching to see if a top contender can continue their dominant season or if an underdog can rise to the occasion and make a deep playoff run.
