SEDETUR: Successful closing of the Mexico Riviera Maya Open at Mayakoba

The Mexico Riviera Maya Open at Mayakoba, the international event that brings together the world's best female golfers, awarded a prize fund of $2.5 million, representing significant global competition, said Bernardo Cueto Riestra, Secretary of Tourism in Quintana Roo.

"It's a powerful example of the growth of sports tourism in Quintana Roo, an industry that drives economic development, job creation, and establishes the state as a world-class destination," he said.

He also said that the holding of the Mexico Riviera Maya Open at Mayakoba is a testament to the international prestige Quintana Roo has earned as a host of major sporting events.

"This tournament not only enhances the natural beauty of the Riviera Maya, but also translates into shared prosperity for the people of Quintana Roo, by boosting the local economy, encouraging investment, and strengthening our state's tourism vocation, as defined by the New Era of Tourism," emphasized the head of the State Secretariat of Tourism (SEDETUR).

During the week of May 22-25, the Mexican Caribbean experienced a true celebration of sports, supported by thousands of fans, international media, and volunteers, who made this tournament an unforgettable experience for players and visitors.

The performance of Mexican María Fassi, who proudly represented her country, strengthens Quintana Roo's commitment to fostering opportunities for competition and excellence for national and international talent.

Events like this consolidate Quintana Roo not only as a leader in recreational tourism, but also as an epicenter of high-impact sports tourism, attracting visitors from around the world seeking unique experiences in unparalleled settings like those our state offers.
