A field of 132 players will tee it up this week at Mayakoba Resort’s El Camaleon Golf Club in Playa del Carmen (Mexico) for the 2017 edition of the OHL Classic.

It’s one of two remaining tournaments in the wrap-around portion of the season, where a handful of stars headline a field of mainly struggling vets and young up and comers – who are all looking to score some early cash and FedExCup points before the big guns return in January.

As we do each week, here’s a look at the field in Mexico, by the numbers.
