WM Phoenix Open

Home to the largest and most enthusiastic crowds in the game and the most iconic hole on the PGA TOUR – the famed 16th-hole Coliseum – the WM Phoenix Open has captured the hearts of millions of golf fans worldwide. From hall-of-fame champions, par-4 aces, and the loudest hole in golf to after-hours concerts, Saturday breakfast clubs, and more than $190 million raised for Arizona charities, there is nothing like it in professional sports.

The Waste Management Phoenix Open has captured the wonder and amazement embodied by the great game of golf for the better part of a century. Take one step onto the course at TPC Scottsdale, and you can feel the presence of the world’s greatest golfers from the past century, like Ben Hogan, Byron Nelson, Jack Nicklaus, and Arnold Palmer. Their great achievements live on through the ambiance of thousands of cheering fans eager to see hungry new athletes leave their mark on history. The green grass, the beautiful February weather, the iconic saguaro cacti, and the remarkable level of play are all reminders of where the game of golf has been and the great things the game has done for people around the globe.
