The 2024 World Wide Technology Championship has been jointly announced by the PGA Tour and World Wide Technology (WWT). It will take place from November 4 to November 10, 2024, at the El Cardonal Course in Diamante Cabo San Lucas, Mexico. The tournament's first round will commence on November 7.
Held at the Tiger Woods-designed El Cardonal golf course in the Diamante Cabo San Lucas resort, the World Wide Technology Championship is a professional golf tournament conducted by the PGA Tour in Mexico. It was the first PGA Tour event to be held in Mexico, and it made its debut in February 2007. Prior to its relocation to Los Cabos in 2023, the event was held in Riviera Maya for its first 16 years.
World Wide Technology Championship History
The tournament was held the same week as the WGC Match Play event in Arizona, having originally been an alternate event in late winter. Mayakoba gained half the points of a regular event while competing in the FedEx Cup. It was the wealthiest golf event in Mexico in 2007, with a prize fund of $3.5 million. Four months prior, Fred Funk, a Champions Tour winner, defeated José Cóceres of Argentina in a playoff to win the first tournament. At 50 years, 257 days, Funk became the oldest player to win a PGA Tour tournament in almost thirty-two years.
As a main event in the early part of the 2014 season, which started in October for the first time, the event was relocated from October to mid-November in 2013. In addition to a major purse increase of over 60% to $6 million, the tournament now offered full FedEx Cup points and an invitation to the Masters. The Mayakoba tournament was not included in the shortened 2013 season due to the tour's revised schedule.
Four additional sponsor exemptions are granted to players of Spanish or Mexican descent from Latin America, South America, Spain, or Mexico for the Golf Classic. World Wide Technology was revealed as the event's new title sponsor in 2021; the agreement ran through 2027. El Camaleón Golf Course was announced as a new member of the 2023 LIV Golf League lineup in November 2022.
