There were rumors about where the second WGC event of the 2016-17 PGA Tour season would end up after it moved away from Trump National Doral earlier this year. We knew the locale would be Mexico, and now we have an official golf course. The Club de Golf Chapultepec will play host to the 2017 WGC-Mexico Championship from March 2-5, 2017.
"We're excited to be able to bring such a global tournament to Club de Golf Chapultepec," club chairman Rodrigo Lebois told the PGA Tour. "There will be plenty of tough holes that will keep the leaderboard interesting, and we're excited to be able to offer memorable viewing experiences for the fans and our members while they're here during tournament week.
