Mark Wahlberg And Pro Golfer Abraham Ancer Go For Laughs, Not Par, In New Video “Golf Etiquette” From Vidanta And Flecha Azul
Ahead of the Mexico Open at Vidanta, which will take place from April 27-30 at Vidanta Nuevo Vallarta, the brandhas released an entertaining new video featuring Hollywood actor Mark Wahlberg and professional golfer Abraham Ancer. In the video, Wahlberg jokingly distracts Ancer as he tries to play golf. Displaying bad golf etiquette, Wahlberg tries to make it harder for Ancer to focus on his game. Some of the dialogue in the video was ad-libbed by Wahlberg because the duo was having such a naturally fun time while filming the piece for Vidanta and their tequila Flecha Azul. The video is available to view on YouTube as well as Vidanta.com/golfetiquette.
While the video is lighthearted, Vidanta is serious about golf. The second consecutive Mexico Open at Vidanta will take place at the Vidanta Vallarta golf course from April 27-30, 2023. The tournament is an official PGA TOUR event that will feature 144 professional golfers competing for a purse of $7.7 million and 500 FedExCup points.

“We are thrilled to have Mark Wahlberg and Abraham Ancer join us for this video, which showcases not only our beautiful Vidanta resort, but also the captivating beauty of Mexico,” said Ivan Chavez, executive vice president of Grupo Vidanta. “The video captures the playful spirit of our brand, while highlighting the world-class golf facilities, breathtaking scenery, and the warmth of Mexican hospitality that Vidanta is known for.”

The combination of our exquisite tequila and Vidanta’s unmatched hospitality creates an unparalleled experience for all guests,” said Aron Marquez, Co-Owner of Flecha Azul. “Together, we’ll elevate the essence of Mexico with every sip, proving that Flecha Azul is truly the best tequila in the market.”
