New Entrance
To help streamline tournament entry and exiting, a new fan entrance will be added on Greenway Hayden Loop, just north of Frank Lloyd Wright Boulevard (located in close proximity to 18 tee). This additional entrance is designed to improve crowd flow, particularly during peak hours on high-attendance days like Friday and Saturday. The Greenway Hayden Loop will be closed to general public vehicle traffic from Frank Lloyd Wright to Princess Drive, further streamlining both the entry and exit process.
Entry Times
Traditional main entrance opens at 7:00 AM.
The new entrance off Hayden Rd. just north of Frank Lloyd Wright Blvd. opens at 7:30 AM.
We suggest getting in line a little bit earlier if you want to score a seat at the iconic 16th hole – especially on Friday and Saturday.
Some parking information has changed since last year. Make sure to check back regularly leading up to your tournament visit to ensure you have the most up-to-date information and welcome to “The People’s Open.”

Autographs
The only place to score an autograph from your favorite TOUR players or celebrities playing in the Annexus Pro-Am is in DESIGNATED autograph zones located near the Driving Range and the cart pad near the Clubhouse. That means no autographs on course. What does “on course” mean? Glad you asked. Anywhere outside of DESIGNATED autograph zones. Oh, and let’s keep the autographs for the kids. Right?
