When is Waste Management Phoenix open?
The Phoenix Open will be held February 7-13, 2022 at TPC Scottsdale, 17020 North Hayden Road, Scottsdale, AZ 85255, Scottsdale. It was pushed back a week this year, so the final day of the event was coordinated with the Super Bowl, which was also pushed back a week after the NFL extended the season to 18 weeks.
The Annexus Pro-Am, which pairs professional golfers with athletes and other personalities, will be held on Wednesday, February 9. The PGA tournament will take place from Thursday to Sunday February 10-13.
