As far as non-major events go, there is nothing in golf that compares to the WM Phoenix Open.
And that might even be giving a little too much credit to the majors.
Between the party atmosphere, the warm weather, the stadium course design and the electric field, the Phoenix Open is what happens when the PGA Tour gets tired of hearing about how “boring” its events are.
While the host course, TPC Scottsdale, isn’t slated to open a sportsbook until next year’s event, there’s tons of action to be had once again in this year’s field.
Defending champion Scottie Scheffler (+1200) is looking to become the first player to repeat since Hideki Matsuyama in 2016-2017 while a scorching Jon Rahm (+750) enters as the favorite.
It’s Super Bowl week in Phoenix and the party begins in Scottsdale.
Let’s get to the bets.
