Andy said Kurt Kitayama is his top pick in the 9K range for the Mexico Open. He credited Kitayama’s ball striking, calling him the best in the field. Additionally, Andy noted that Kitayama did not play Torrey Pines last week, which could be beneficial for a fresh approach. Andy emphasized Kitayama’s consistent performance and indicated he might fade other 9K options like Sam Stevens or Patrick Rodgers due to their extended playing schedules.

Andy said that Jake Knapp is undervalued at 50-to-1 for the Mexico Open, explaining that he should have been priced around 25-to-1 based on his course fit and ongoing strong form. Despite some doubt from others on his upside, Andy views this number as a clear mispricing and believes Knapp can deliver a significant return for bettors this week.

Andy said he bet Nicolai Hojgaard at 55-to-1 for the Mexico Open, calling him a strong DFS and betting target due to his resort course experience and the perceived discount compared to his brother, Rasmus. Andy emphasized Hojgaard’s powerful driver and success on similar paspalum setups, projecting him as one of the highest-owned in this salary range and a valuable play at his price.

Andy said C.T. Pan is one of his favorite plays in the 8K range, noting Pan’s third-place finish at last year’s Mexico Open and overall consistency. He highlighted Pan’s solid iron play and improved putting as key factors. Although the odds have shortened significantly from last year’s 250-to-1 to around 45-to-1, Andy still sees potential for a high finish and a viable DFS pivot in a crowded salary tier.

Andy said he bet Kris Ventura at 100-to-1 for the Mexico Open, pointing to his length off the tee, proven Korn Ferry Tour success, and strong short game. He cited Ventura’s past collegiate pedigree at Oklahoma State alongside top players like Viktor Hovland and Sam Stevens. Although he’s been inconsistent on the PGA Tour, Andy believes Ventura’s combination of distance and putting skill makes him a high-upside sleeper for this resort setup.

Andy said he bet Antoine Rozner at 90-to-1, emphasizing Rozner’s four wins on the DP World Tour and a recent fourth-place finish in Qatar, where windy, open setups on paspalum surfaces are common. Andy pointed out that Rozner’s ball striking and ability to handle diverse conditions offer legitimate upside, and he believes Rozner's skill set translates well to Vidanta for the Mexico Open.

Andy said he bet Vincent Norrman at 100-to-1, citing his strong ball striking and consistently making cuts in recent events, despite lacking top-10 finishes. Andy acknowledged that the betting markets are already accounting for Norrman’s potential. However, he believes Norrman’s length off the tee and decent putting on resort courses could make him a surprise contender and a GPP target for the Mexico Open.

Andy said Rasmus Hojgaard is an appealing underpriced play for the Mexico Open, emphasizing his proven success on paspalum courses in the DP World Tour, including a recent fourth-place finish in Qatar. Andy noted that DataGolf ranks Hojgaard ahead of other recognized names, suggesting strong overall form and upside. The likelihood of low ownership in DFS further boosts Hojgaard’s potential value, especially with windy conditions anticipated—similar to other layouts where he has excelled.

Andy identified Nicolai Hojgaard as a promising long-shot wager at 55-to-1 for the Mexico Open. While the conversation highlighted that recent tournament favorites Jon Rahm and Tony Finau have won, Andy noted that the event has also produced a mid-range winner at around 45-to-1 in the past. He expects another potential surprise outcome this year, making Hojgaard an attractive upside play for bettors seeking value beyond the top names.
