2024 Mexico Open at Vidanta one and done picks, top sleepers: PGA Tour predictions, expert golf betting advice
The PGA Tour heads south of the border this week for the 2024 Mexico Open at Vidanta. The event is set to get underway on Thursday at Vidanta Vallarta. Tony Finau headlines the 2024 Mexico Open field and is coming off a 19th place finish at the Genesis Invitational last week. Finau is the 13-2 betting favorite in the latest 2024 Mexico Open odds. Other top contenders include Nicolai Højgaard (16-1), Emiliano Grillo (18-1), Thomas Detry (25-1), Stephan Jaeger (25-1), and Thorbjørn Olesen (25-1). The total 2024 Mexico Open purse is $8.1 million, with the winner's share coming in at $1.386 million.
With this tournament featuring a wide open field, should you target a favorite like Finau or Højgaard? Or would it make more sense to go with a long shot like Charley Hoffman or Jhonattan Vegas? Before locking in your 2024 Mexico Open one and done picks, you need to see what SportsLine DFS pro and PGA expert Mike McClure has to say.
The One and Done format is growing in popularity. It has several noticeable similarities to NFL Survivor pools, with the main difference being entries are not eliminated with a bad week. Players pick one golfer per week and earn points based on their selected golfer's prize money for that tournament. Golfers can only be used once per season, and the point format makes nailing majors and big money tournaments critical.
McClure is a DFS legend with over $2 million in career winnings, and he's been red-hot on his PGA picks dating back to the PGA Tour restart in June of 2020. McClure uses his proprietary simulation model to analyze the field and crush his golf picks.
McClure nailed plenty of One and Done picks in 2023. At the 2023 Farmers Insurance Open, McClure's top One and Done pick, Max Homa, outlasted the entire field to take home his sixth career PGA Tour victory and $1.566 million. At the WM Phoenix Open, McClure nailed Scheffler winning the tournament, taking home $3.6 million.
He correctly called Jon Rahm's wins at The Masters and the Sentry Tournament of Champions. Then at the RBC Canadian Open McClure listed Nick Taylor and Tyrrell Hatton as two of his top one and done picks. Taylor would go on to win the tournament, while Hatton finished in third place. And finally, at the Rocket Mortgage Classic, his top OAD pick was eventual tournament champion Rickie Fowler.
This season, one of his top OAD picks was for The American Express was Justin Thomas, who finished in third place and took home $635,600, and at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am his top pick was Scottie Scheffler, who finished in sixth place after the final round was cancelled due to weather. At the WM Phoenix Open, McClure recommended OAD players use Scheffler as their pick if they hadn't done so already this season. He ended up finishing in third place, taking home $519,200. Finally, one of McClure's top OAD picks at the Genesis Invitational was Patrick Cantlay, who finished in fourth place at the signature event.
