The 2023 WM Phoenix Open Monday qualifier at McCormick Ranch featured 96 golfers bidding to nab one of three spots, the final three spots, in the “People’s Open.”
The Monday qualifier for the Phoenix Open has become a stacked event, with a slew of veteran PGA Tour golfers bidding to get into what this year is a $20 million designated event.
First place at TPC Scottsdale is worth $3.6 million. Second place is $2.18 million. Even third place is in the seven figures at $1.38 million. Solo 64th-place would net a golfer $43,000.
That’s why there were so many veteran PGA Tour golfers taking a crack at making the WMPO field.
