When you talk about “golf tournaments” and “Scottsdale,” all discussions must begin and end with the PGA Tour’s FBR Open, the best attended golf tournament in the world. It is likely the most fun and exciting event as well, thanks to the TPC of Scottsdale's Stadium course. The layout is both fan-friendly, where more than 100,000 spectators can feast on unobstructed views of golf’s top stars and player-friendly, where the dramatic risk-reward options down the stretch can result in eagles and birdies. FBR Open festivities take place all week throughout Scottsdale, but the grins don’t get any wider than for the FBR Open Pro-Am at nearby Grayhawk, known as the “Scottsdale Celebrity”. It’s sponsored by the Scottsdale CVB and is sure to please. In addition, you won’t want to miss The FBR Open’s “Bird’s Nest,” a party tent that features live music and attracts thousands of revelers following each day of play. Come early and come often - this is always the party of the year!
Congratulations to Aaron Baddeley for winning the 2007 FBR Open. Plans are well underway for the 2008 edition. Keep checking back for the latest information.
