The WM Phoenix Open is one of the most eagerly anticipated events on the PGA Tour calendar, thanks largely to its famous party atmosphere, particularly on the stadium hole at TPC Scottsdale.
It’s not just the fans who contribute to its raucous atmosphere, either. For example two years ago, as well as a couple of aces at the hole, Harry Higgs and Joel Dahmen went topless at the 16th, adding to the sense that the event is quite unlike any other on the circuit. The tournament also falls on the weekend of the Super Bowl, meaning it makes a big contribution to a huge sporting Sunday in the US.
