The Mexico Open is an interesting week with a new course and a weak field. It’s a week you either love or hate. Usually, this is the type of week where if you know the lower-end players well and do your research, there are edges to be gained. Every week is an opportunity, and I think you have to view it that way. Player salaries are definitely hard to wrap your head around but that is how it is at weak-field events. Not having anyone with course history really levels the playing field as there is no advantage for having played the course in the past.
This is also a perfect event to pivot off the chalk because in these weak-field events people typically flock to the names they have heard before. The only problem with that strategy is that there aren’t really many quality pivots.
