On the strength of a course-record setting front-nine 28, PGA Tour rookie Jake Knapp fired a seven-under 63 on Saturday to seize a four-shot lead heading into the final round of the Mexico Open. Knapp, 29, has been around the development-tour block, but this is his first time playing as a front-runner on Sunday.

His closest pursuer — and playing partner — is another rookie, Finland’s Sami Valimaki, who, like Knapp, is seeking his first Tour win.

The event, at Vidanta, in Puerto Vallarta, does not feature the season’s most sparkling field, but there’s plenty to play for, including a Masters invite, a two-year Tour exemption and a slot in the remaining five $20 million signature events as well as the PGA Championship. 

And then there’s the money: an $8.1 million purse. You can check out the entire payout breakdown for the 2024 Mexico Open below.
