The WGC-Mexico Championship was an incredibly exciting tournament. The star of the week was Phil Mickelson, who prevailed in a playoff to win his first tournament in nearly five years. The Spanish announcers calling the action were collectively the second star of the show.
By now, we’ve all seen Justin Thomas’ hole out on the 72nd hole which ultimately put him in the playoff with Mickelson. But just wait until you hear it called by the Spanish announce team. As a bonus, you can hear the call of his ace in 2017’s third round.
Two years. Two epic calls for @JustinThomas34.

As great as those calls were, we aren’t sure that either was as good as the one dialed up for Ross Fisher’s third round ace in 2018.
HOOOOOOOOLE! 🇲🇽
@RossFisher's ace at the @WGCMexico is even better in Spanish. Watch: https://t.co/NfKAGi6F5a pic.twitter.com/9T1bKesmjQ

We can say with great confidence that will never get old. We can also say that we’re already eagerly anticipating more of these calls at the 2019 event.
