The Waste Management Phoenix Open, also known as the Greatest Game on Grass, is legendary among golf enthusiasts. Coming to Scottsdale, Arizona each winter, it is the world’s best-attended golf tournament.
The WMPO annually sees the biggest crowds on the PGA tour and starts this year with golf played by such luminaries as Phil Mickelson, Bubba Watson, Keegan Bradley, Rickie Fowler, and Brandt Snedeker. For first time visitors, it’s an absolute must to check out Hole 16, with its stadium seating and crowd numbers exceeding 16,000! For tacos and tequila, you’ll find the new and improved El Rancho on 12.
Other must-visit areas include craft Haus and Fan Zone. What’s more, WMPO is an absolutely green event, with excellent material management every year.
