Phoenix Golf And Resorts
Phoenix is one of the top states in the U.S. when it comes
to golf and our resorts. We love our golf here in Phoenix!
Locals will even play during the summer to take
advantage of cheaper green fees. Fees skyrocket during
the winter months as the snow birds flock in to take
advantage of our great weather. Here are some of the
most popular golf resorts in Phoenix:

happened more times that I care to count. True the Suns, • Gold Canyon - www.gcgr.com

sundevilstadium.asu.edu Waste Management Open (Formally The Phoenix
Open)- There’s a reason they call it “the greatest show on
grass!” Every January Phoenicians flock to the “Waste
Management Open” PGA Golf Tournament. It is held at
the TPC course in Scottsdale. We are famously known for
the 16th hole, dubbed by player as “the rowdiest hole in
golf.” Here golf fans get dressed in their golf course best,
drink, eat and be loud. It’s definitely not the place you
want to go if you want a quiet afternoon. If that is the case
then enjoy your day walking around to various holes and
following your favorite golfer. - wmphoenixopen.com
