VidantaWorld Mexico Open betting guide: 5 picks our expert loves

Golf betting analyst Brady Kannon has selected five outright picks for the 2026 VidantaWorld Mexico Open in Nuevo Nayarit. The tournament marks the fifth year Vidanta Vallarta has hosted the PGA Tour event, which is now part of the FedEx Cup Fall Series. Kannon highlights Marco Penge at 28-1, Blades Brown at 33-1, Andrew Novak at 40-1, Jordan Smith at 45-1, and Luke Clanton at 60-1 as his preferred betting selections for the tournament.

The Greg Norman-designed Vidanta Vallarta course plays as a par 71 over 7,300 yards with wide Paspalum fairways and large greens. Kannon explains that success at the course heavily favors long drivers and players with elite approach play from beyond 200 yards. Key statistical metrics considered include Strokes Gained: Approach, Driving Distance, and past form on similar coastal Paspalum courses.
