The WM Phoenix Open, the popular annual golf event held at TPC Scottsdale, recently won a major award.
On Dec. 7, the open was named Tournament of the Year at the PGA Tour’s annual Tournament Meetings in La Quinta, Calif. It shares the honor with the BMW Championship, which is held at Olympia Fields Country Club in Olympia Fields, Ill.
“We’re extremely proud to be nominated three times by the PGA Tour in its ‘Best of Awards.’ This is possible due to our great fans, sponsors and the community for their commitment to our event,” said Pat Williams, Big Chief of The Thunderbirds and tournament chairman for the 2023 WM Phoenix Open, in the news release. “The success of the WM Phoenix Open is only possible through the efforts of so many involved, starting with our title sponsor WM and The Thunderbird organization. Our goal each year is to make the WM Phoenix Open better than the prior year so we can continue to grow our charitable give to the metro Phoenix area.”
