World’s Best Golfers Set to Return to Arizona for the 2025 Ford Championship presented by Wild Horse Pass

Tickets to go on sale in coming weeks; volunteer opportunities currently available for area sports fans

PHOENIX, Ariz., Nov. 20, 2024 – Arizona golf fans, get ready for the return of the world’s best golfers!

On March 27-30, 2025, the LPGA Tour will head to Whirlwind Golf Club for the 2025 Ford Championship presented by Wild Horse Pass. The event promises to bring elite competition alongside family-friendly activities for sports enthusiasts of all ages.

The 2025 WM Phoenix Open has come to a thrilling conclusion, with thousands of golf fans once again putting the Super Bowl on hold to witness the crowning of this year’s champion. This time, it was Thomas Detry who etched his name into tournament history, capturing his first career PGA TOUR victory in dominant fashion at 24-under par.

Detry delivered when it mattered most, firing a 6-under 65 – which included birdies and the final four holes – in the final round to seal the win and become the first Belgian player ever to win on the PGA TOUR. His steady play and clutch putting down the stretch proved too much for the field, as he confidently closed out The People’s Open in style.

Is there anything better than a Friday at the WM Phoenix Open? Fans packed TPC Scottsdale for another electric day of golf, and they weren’t disappointed. The leaderboard is stacked, the energy is building, and with the weekend on the horizon, things are just getting started.

Thomas Detry holds the outright lead at 12-under par, following a scorching 7-under round today. But he’s got company. Alex Smalley and Michael Kim sit just two shots back at 10-under, with Smalley carding a 6-under 65 and Kim firing a bogey-free 8-under 63 to surge into contention.

Right behind them, three players sit at 9-under, including Jordan Spieth, Christiaan Bezuidenhout, and Tom Kim – all within striking distance heading into the weekend. With big names and lots of red numbers on the scorecard, it’s shaping up to be a must-watch Moving Day at The People’s Open.

Emiliano Grillo (3-under) stole the show at the loudest hole in golf. He didn’t just make an ace – he dropped it straight in the cup. A clean, slam-dunk, straight-dart from 155 yards that spun around the hole before finally disappearing, sending 17,000 fans into a flurry. That’s how you make history at the Coliseum.

Yes, plenty happens before the first tee shot is struck, but Thursday marked the official start of the 2025 edition of “The People’s Open.” And if the opening round was any indication, we’re in for an absolute thriller.

Wyndham Clark holds the early lead at 7-under par, making a strong statement out of the gate. But things are tightly packed at the top of the leaderboard, with Taylor Moore and Lee Hodges just one shot back at 6-under par. Right behind them, a stacked group of six players sits at 5-under par, including Justin Thomas, Nicolai Højgaard, Andrew Putnam, Akshay Bhatia, Camilo Villegas, and Adam Schenk. With so many contenders in the mix, this tournament is shaping up to be a shootout.
