After Euro Tour win, Fox makes it to Mexico with no practice

MEXICO CITY – Thursday’s opening round at the WGC-Mexico Championship promises to be interesting for Ryan Fox.

Fox was a late addition to the field when Andrew Putnam withdrew. The New Zealander didn’t arrive in Mexico until late Wednesday and wasn’t able to play a practice round at Club de Golf Chapultepec.

Fox, who won last week's World Super 6 Perth on the European Tour, is scheduled to tee off at 12:15 p.m. ET with Aaron Rai and Byeong Hun An. This is Fox’s first start at the event and just his third start in a World Golf Championship.
