The Waste Management Phoenix Open is the most popular golf tournament in the world where over 700,000 golf fans are expected to attend this year’s event.  It typically has been known as a birdie-fest, but since the redesign after the 2014 event, the test at TPC Scottsdale’s Stadium Course is a little more difficult.  It plays as a par 71 course that now measures 7,261 yards in length after a small decrease on the first hole.  Big hitters with an aggressive style of golf still have an advantage here, especially playing in the higher altitude.  Hitting greens in regulation is crucial though if a golfer has any aspirations of contending.  That is why tee-to-green specialists also are very much in the mix as evidenced by Chez Reavie’s playoff defeat last year to Gary Woodland.
