After three consecutive weeks in California, the PGA Tour heads to the Valley of the Sun for its biggest event of the season thus far,
The 2023 WM Phoenix Open at TPC Scottsdale kicks off Thursday, and it’s the first full-field designated event of the year. Of the golfers who are eligible to compete, 23 of the top 24 in the world are in attendance, including No. 1 Rory McIlroy, No. 2 Scottie Scheffler, who won this event for his first victory last year, and No. 3 Jon Rahm.
It’s a star-studded week in the Phoenix area, as the Super Bowl is happening Sunday across town in Glendale. However, the Tour’s best will duke it out for a title of their own.
Here’s a look at the best photos from the 2023 WM Phoenix Open.
