Of the seven Americas players who landed at 6:45 this morning in Miami from Mexico, only Chris Nido made his tee time, which fortunately was the last one off 10 at 9 a.m. Nido said they were supposed to land around midnight, but after taking off from Mexico City, there was a e flight and they had to make an emergency landing in Veracruz.
