MEXICO CITY – Collin Morikawa had a general idea of where he needed to finish last week at the Genesis Invitational in order to crack the field here in Mexico.
And while a torrid start on Sunday at Riviera helped, there were no guarantees.
“It was a little stressful after the round just kind of watching. We had to have a few things work themselves out,” Morikawa said on Tuesday at the WGC-Mexico Championship.
He estimated he needed to finish inside the top 40 to move into the top 50 in the Official World Golf Ranking and qualify for this week’s World Golf Championship.
