What a great weekend with Special Olympics Arizona and the Arizona Special Olympics State Games.  The Thunderbirds are a proud supporter of this great organization and want to congratulate all of the athletes who competed in the 2018 Games!  We look forward to this event every year and can’t wait to be back in 2019.  

First-year PGA TOUR professional Ben Silverman is riding around in a brand new Ford Expedition after winning the Ford Drive for your Ride contest at the 16th hole during the 2018 Waste Management Phoenix Open. Silverman’s first and second round shots at the iconic par-3 measured a total of 15’ 8” from the cup, good enough to win a new ride for himself and the 100 Club of Arizona.

The third round of the 2018 Waste Management Phoenix Open exceeded ambitious attendance expectations, drawing 216,818 fans to TPC Scottsdale – a new single-day touranment record. The attendance mark bested the previous year’s Saturday attendance by nearly 12,000 and is the third-straight year third-round attendance surpassed 200,000 fans, as well as the third straight year the Saturday attendance record was broken.
