Welcome to the WM Phoenix Open Blog!
Welcome to the Waste Management Phoenix Open Blog on the new WMPhoenixOpen.com.
We’re excited to have Waste Management on board as the new title sponsor for the golf tournament. Waste Management’s involvement with the tournament will not only allow the tournament host Thunderbirds to continue to raise millions of dollars for charity each year, but will also make the event the “greenest” on the PGA TOUR. The Waste Management Phoenix Open will be a major platform for showcasing Waste Management’s Think Green® solutions. Waste Management, known for its leadership in collection, transportation, disposal and recycling, also provides waste solutions like practical and sustainable renewable energy alternatives, comprehensive sustainability evaluations and new technologies to recover the resource in waste. The tournament is a way to showcase these solutions, which help customers and communities reduce waste while reducing cost and creating positive change for the environment.
And while “the Greatest Show on Grass” is now “the Greenest Show on Grass,” fans can still expect the same exciting atmosphere for which the tournament has become legendary. Once again in 2010, the world famous 16th hole will be a fully enclosed stadium with general admission and skybox seating for up to 15,000 enthusiastic fans. After a successful debut at the 2009 FBR Open, The Tilted Kilt Beer Garden returns along the 18th hole and will provide tournament goers a great place to catch some golf action while enjoying a refreshing beverage.
New to the 2010 Waste Management Phoenix Open, the Michelob Ultra Champions Pavilion will be open to all fans and will not require a separate ticket for entry. Located between the 2nd and 9th greens, The Champions Pavilion has a sports lounge feel complete with plasma televisions, live scoring monitors, bar service and plenty of comfortable seating. The Champions Pavilion features a fantastic menu of food entrees, alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks all available for purchase.
That’s all for now. Check back in the coming days and weeks for more WM Phoenix Open blog posts.
