The Excitement Builds: WM Phoenix Open is Just Around the Corner!

Golf enthusiasts, get ready! The upcoming WM Phoenix Open is gearing up to deliver an exhilarating experience from February 6-9, 2025, at TPC Scottsdale. As the excitement builds, the local golfing scene is thriving, and the buzz is palpable. With world-class players heading to town, this tournament promises to be a fantastic showcase of talent and entertainment.

A Golf Paradise in the Desert

Scottsdale has come a long way since it was incorporated back in 1951 with a modest population of just around 2,000 folks. Fast forward to today, and it is now one of the fastest-growing metro areas in the U.S. What’s the secret to this booming growth? You guessed it—golf! With over 200 golf courses in the area, Scottsdale has firmly planted its flag as a favored destination for both professional golfers and mini-tour players alike.

Finding the Perfect Course

For those looking to hit the greens while they’re in town, Golf Digest has released a guide that features the 25 best golf courses in this stunning desert city. Whether you’re a seasoned pro or a weekend warrior, there’s something for everyone. The guide showcases a mix of top-tier courses, including a renowned member of the 100 Greatest Public courses, and a few delightful hidden gems worth checking out.

One must-play course is Quintero Golf Club, which is a scenic 45-minute drive from the airport. It’s the perfect spot for both breathtaking views and a challenging round. Not too far from there, just a 30-minute jaunt, you’ll find Wickenburg Ranch, another highly-rated gem that is certainly worth the visit.

Let’s not forget about the Victory at Verrado’s par-5 18th hole, which stands out for its unique design and stunning visuals. It’s one of those holes that will leave you with a lasting impression!

Top-Ranked Golf Courses

This area is home to some of the best golf courses in the nation. For example, Estancia, designed by the famous Tom Fazio, was ranked as the third-best residential golf course in the country by Golfweek in 2025. That’s quite an accomplishment! Arizona also had 24 residential and 9 resort golf courses recognized in Golfweek’s national rankings, showcasing the state’s commitment to delivering exceptional golfing experiences.

The scores of these courses come from more than 800 raters who evaluate them on a 10-point scale across ten different criteria. You know you’re in good hands when making your golfing plans!

The Spectacle of the WM Phoenix Open

Scottie Scheffler, who has clinched the Phoenix Open title twice, are back in pursuit of yet another win. He will have worthy competition from the likes of Justin Thomas, Sungjae Im, Sam Burns, Tom Kim, and Sahith Theegala. And let’s not forget the local favorite, Max Homa, alongside other golf stars such as Rickie Fowler and Jordan Spieth.

There’s also an exciting storyline in the mix: amateur golfer Luke Clanton has a shot at securing his PGA Tour membership by simply making the cut during the tournament. Talk about pressure!

Big Purse and a Unique Atmosphere

The WM Phoenix Open features a whopping purse of $9,200,000, making it not only a prestigious event but also a lucrative one for players. With a course par of 71 and a yardage of 7,261, this event promises to be both challenging and rewarding.

The tournament is known for its lively atmosphere, particularly at the infamous par-3 16th hole, often described as the loudest hole in golf. Fans create an electrifying environment that makes this event one of a kind.

As the WM Phoenix Open approaches, the excitement continues to build in Scottsdale, making it the perfect time for golf lovers to indulge in unforgettable experiences in this spectacular golf haven! Get ready for some great golf action!
