Construction for “The People’s Open” is now underway, and The Thunderbirds, hosts of the WM Phoenix Open, have announced several changes and improvements for the upcoming event designed to elevate the overall fan experience. Changes this year include adding another tournament entrance, an all-digital general admission ticketing platform, improved spectator walking areas, and upgraded general admission venues for fans.

“Each and every year, The Thunderbirds review the previous tournament and look for ways to improve,” said 2025 WM Phoenix Open Tournament Chairman Matt Mooney. We’ve been working closely with the PGA TOUR, Scottsdale Police and Fire, title sponsor WM and our other valued partners to make impactful changes for 2025.  We are excited to announce these enhancements as the countdown to ‘The People’s Open’ begins.”

The Thunderbirds are once again inviting active First Responders as well as Active, Reserve, Veterans and Retired U.S. Military personnel and one accompanying individual to be their guest at the 2025 WM Phoenix Open, which is set to tee it up Feb. 3 – 9 at TPC Scottsdale. This is the 23rd year that The Thunderbirds – hosts of the WM Phoenix Open – have extended this free invitation as a small gesture of thanks to our nation’s heroes.
