PHOENIX OPEN
Our
golf
royalty
Phil Mickelson
No Mount Rushmore of golf would be
complete without Mickelson, who might
have been born in California but long has
been claimed by Arizona as a native son.
Mickelson became ours in the early 1990s
when he attended Arizona State and
became the most dominant amateur golfer
in the country, winning 16 tournaments,
three NCAA individual titles and earning
All-America honors four straight years.
If that wasn’t enough, Mickelson became
only the sixth amateur to win a PGA Tour
event and he did so in Tucson, winning the
1991 Northern Telecom Open. The number
of amateurs who have won a Tour event
since then: zero.
Mickelson’s PGA Tour career, of course, is
the stuff of legends. He’s won 42 events,
including five majors. He’s one of 16 golfers
to win three of the four majors; only the
U.S. Open has eluded him. His excellence
and longevity earned him an induction into
the World Golf Hall of Fame in 2012.
“Lefty,” as we’ve come to known him, has
saved some of his best performances and
most dramatic moments for the Waste
Management Phoenix Open. He’s won the
event three times, most recently in 2013
when he had a birdie putt on his last hole to
shoot a 59. The putt lipped out, causing an
unbelieving Mickelson to fall to his knees.
Mickelson might have moved back to
California years ago but he’s still a Sun Devil
and still – and forever – a Valley favorite.
Bob Goldwater Sr.
Goldwater has been called the “Father of the
Phoenix Open” and for good reason: It was his
persistence and forward thinking that gave birth
to the event.
When Goldwater became a Thunderbird in 1939
he suggested to Big Chief Ken Barton that the
group resurrect the then-defunct Phoenix Open.
The Thunderbirds weren’t interested in hosting
a sporting event but they agreed to appoint a
committee that would meet with the Phoenix
Chamber of Commerce in order to discuss other
events they might promote.
Goldwater was the only Thunderbird to show
up at the meeting so, with no one to argue
against him, he pushed the idea of a golf
tournament and got approval from the Chamber
of Commerce.
There was just one problem. The Thunderbirds
wanted no part of a golf tournament so they
made Goldwater do all the work. He sold the
sponsorships, printed the tickets and made a deal
with Phoenix Country Club to host the event.
Most importantly, he gave the 1939 tournament
some much-needed cache by persuading friends
Byron Nelson and Ben Hogan to play in the
event. Hogan won by 12 shots and earned $700
of the $3,000 purse.

SCOTT BORDOW AZCENTRAL SPORTS
To be a golfer in Arizona is to be a kid in
a candy store. • Like to play? There are
hundreds of courses to choose from, many
of which wind up on top-10 lists. • More of a
spectator? No problem. There’s the annual
party called the Waste Management
Phoenix Open, a LPGA event every spring
and the Champions Tour Charles Schwab
Cup, which will have a new home at Phoenix
Country Club in 2017. • Need a new set of
clubs? There’s probably a golf merchandise
store within 10 miles of your house. Or, you
can get a set custom fitted at several places
in the Valley. • Oh, did we mention that golf
is a year-round pursuit here, free of snow
and sleet and freezing temperatures? Sure,
it gets hot in the summer but that’s when
the prices are low and the courses aren’t
crowded. It’s a trade-off many of us happily
accept. • Basically, Arizona golf rocks.
Which got us thinking: Who would be on
the Mount Rushmore of golf in Arizona?
There were a long list of candidates but in
the end, these four names stood out.

Karsten Solheim
Solheim didn’t take up golf until he was 42
and only then because he was invited to
play in a foursome by some colleagues at
General Electric.
From that invitation came one of the
sport’s great innovators.
Like many golfers, Solheim’s putting woes
kept him up at night. So he did something
about it, designing a putter with the shaft
at the center of the blade. Soon after,
he was designing clubs in the garage of
his Phoenix home. In 1967, 13 years after
he first picked up a club, Solheim started
Karsten Manufacturing, better known
today as PING. The name, by the way, came
from the sound he heard as the metal of
the club struck the golf ball.
It’s almost impossible to overstate what
Solheim meant to golf. His principle of
perimeter weighting soon became the
standard in club design. The list of players
who have used PING clubs is too long to
mention, but perhaps it’s worth noting that
an amateur named Tiger Woods once used
the Ping Anser 2 steel putter.
Solheim’s legacy continues to be
celebrated, whether it’s the Solheim Cup,
the women’s version of the Ryder Cup, or
the ASU Karsten Golf Course.
When Solheim died in 2000 at the age
of 88, Ken Lindsay, former president of
the PGA of America, said: “Perhaps no
individual has had as profound as impact
on the golf industry as Karsten Solheim.”
Annika Sorenstam
When Sorenstam was playing collegiately at
e University of Arizona in the early 1990s, few
the
ought she would one day become the most
thought
dominant player on the LPGA Tour.
Sorenstam won the NCAA Division I individual
title in 1991 as a freshman but the victory didn’t
stamp her Swedish passport with greatness. In
fact, when she turned pro in 1992 she failed to
earn her LPGA Tour card, missing out by one shot
at the final qualifying tournament.
Just two years later, however, Sorenstam gave
a hint as to what was to come, recording three
top-10 finishes to become the LPGA Rookie of the
Year. Then, in 1995 -- a U.S. Open title and Player
of the Year honors. In 2001, she shot a 59 at the
Standard Register Ping at Moon Valley Country
Club in Phoenix.
For 11 years Sorenstam was the player on the
LPGA Tour. She won 90 international events,
including 10 majors, and was Player of the Year a
record eight times before retiring in 2008.
In 2003 Sorenstam made history when she became
the first female to play in a PGA Tour event since
Babe Zaharias, competing in the Colonial in Fort
Worth, Texas. She missed the cut but inspired
a generation of young female golfers with her
ability and ambition.

Wide variety at Birds Nest
Owen, Rice, Keith, Kaskade, Flo Rida, Blink-182 to headline post-round concerts
The Coors Light Birds Nest has doubled the number of artists playing this year’s concert seriesby programming two acts a night instead of one. The
first two nights are heavy on the country, with Jake Owen and Chase Rice on Wednesday, Toby Keith headlining the bill on Thursday with the Band
Perry opening. Friday is more about dancing, with EDM superstar Kaskade joined by hip-house hit machine Flo Rida. And Saturday, Feb. 4, brings
perhaps the most unusual team-up of the weekend – EDM star Steve Aoki opening for Blink-182. Here’s a guide to get you ready for the weekend.
Jake Owen
The Academy of Coun-
try Music’s Top New Male
Vocalist pick for 2009,
bro-country heartthrob
Owen headlined last
year’s Country Thunder
Arizona festival, inspir-
ing one massive singalong
after another, from his
own hits to Van Halen’s
“Jump” and Drake’s
“Hold On, We’re Going
Home.” His best-known
hits include three No. 1 ap-
pearances on Billboard’s
country songs chart –
“Barefoot Blue Jean
Night,” “Alone With You”
and “Beachin’” – as well as
Top 10 country singles
“Startin’ With Me,” “Don’t
Think I Can’t Love You,”
“The One That Got Away,”
“Anywhere With You” and
“American Country Love
Song.” That last one is
from last year’s “Ameri-
can Love,” which topped
the country album charts.
Chase Rice
Rice co-wrote the big-
gest-selling country
download ever, the Flori-
da Georgia Line hit
“Cruise.” As an artist,
Rice is best known for the
Top 5 country single
“Ready Set Roll” and a
Top 10 followup called
“Gonna Want Tonight.”
Released in the summer
of 2014, Rice’s latest al-
bum topped the Billboard
country charts.
Toby Keith
This country superstar
was the highest-profile
entertainer to agree to
play at Donald Trump’s
“Make America Great
Again! Welcome Celebra-
tion” on the eve of his in-
auguration, a controver-
sial decision Keith de-
fended. “I don’t apologize
for performing for our
military,” he said in a
statement to Entertain-
ment Weekly. “I per-
formed at events for pre-
vious presidents (George
W.) Bush and (Barack)
Obama and over 200
shows in Iraq and Afghan-
istan for the USO.”
The man’s first single,
“Should’ve Been a Cow-
boy,” was the most-played
country single of the ‘90s.
But his biggest hit came
18 long years later with
“Red Solo Cup,” a double-
platinum novelty song ex-
tolling the virtues of the
plastic cup that holds his
beer.
Other singles of note
include platinum country
chart-toppers “Courtesy
of the Red, White and
Blue (The Angry Ameri-
can),” “Beer for My Hors-
es” (a duet with Willie Nel-
son), “American Soldier”
and “As Good As I Once
Was.”
The Band Perry
Singer Kimberly Perry
and her brothers, Reid
and Neil, went six-times
platinum, topping Bill-
board’s country chart
with “If I Die Young,” in
which Perry explains
what she’d like you do
should she not live to see
if Adele is still naming her
albums after her age
when she hits 40. Largely
driven by that break-
through hit, they took
home top new artist at the
ACM Awards and new art-
ist of the year at the
CMAs, where “If I Die
Young” picked up song
and single of the year. Two
subsequent singles, “All
Your Life” and the double-
platinum “Better Dig
Two,” also topped the
country charts. Other hits
of note include “You Lie”
and “Done,” both of which
went platinum.

Saturday’s show for Blink-182. Rapper Flo Rida (bottom right) will perform Friday night.
Kaskade
Hailed in 2011 as the
“new face of electronic
dance music” in a New
York Times profile, Kas-
kade is Ryan Raddon, a
Grammy-nominated DJ/
producer whose latest al-
bum, “Automatic,” hit the
charts at No. 25. The Chi-
cago-born house star was
voted America’s Best DJ
twice – in 2011 and 2013 –
in the annual DJ Times
poll. And if that leaves you
wondering if he’s fallen
off since then, it should be
noted that he finished sec-
ond in 2016, the same year
he headlined the first
EDM event in the Los An-
geles Center’s history,
drawing 20,000 fans to his
biggest show ever. The
DJ’s 2011 album, “Fire &
Ice,” debuted at No. 1 on
the Billboard Dance/Elec-
tronic Albums chart and
earned Kaskade his first
of six Grammy nomina-
tions.
Flo Rida
Flo Rida started off
2008 at No. 1 with “Low,”
which held on for a 10-
week run unmatched by
any single since Beyonc-
e’s “Irreplaceable” — the
biggest difference being
that Beyonce was a super-
star by then, while “Low”
was the Florida rapper’s
first official single (and
the biggest single of
2008). He was back at No.
1 in 2009 with “Right
Round” and again in 2012
with “Whistle.”
But in much the same
way that the Beatles’ lega-
cy extends beyond the
chart-toppers on “1,” the
man has had plenty of
non-chart-topping hits
that people know and
love, including the multi-
platinum “In the Ayer,”
“Club Can’t Handle Me,”
“Good Feeling,” “Wild
Ones,” “I Cry,” “G.D.F.R.”
and “My House.”
Blink-182
“If Blink-182 fans care
at all that founding mem-
ber Tom DeLonge has left
the fold, you certainly
wouldn’t have known that
from witnessing a 2016
sold-out performance at
Ak-Chin Pavilion in Phoe-

of Blink carried on – as

grossing dance artist in ON SALE

part, Aoki modified his

the superstar DJ ex-

Valley pros agree:
Arizona golf rocks
Whisper Rock
Golf Club, Upper
Course, No. 12, in
Scottsdale.
PGA Tour pros Billy Mayfair, Jon Rahm (like Mayfair, a former Sun Devil), James Hahn, Robert Garrigus, Ricky Barnes, Aaron Baddeley and
Kevin Streelman, and LPGA Tour pro Ryann O’Toole.
After graduating from Phoenix Camelback High School, Billy Mayfair thought he would play collegiate golf at Oklahoma
State. h He loved everything about the place. The campus, the coach, the facilities. There was just one drawback: the
weather. h “The wind blew and it was cold and I said to myself, ‘Why leave a perfect climate?’” Mayfair recalled. h Mayfair
went on to have a great collegiate career at Arizona State University and now, at the age of 50 and a member of the PGA
Champions Tour, he’s glad he never moved from what he calls the “golf capital of the world.” h “It’s just perfect,” he said. h
Mayfair isn’t alone in that view. With the Waste Management Phoenix Open on tap this week we asked golfers who live in
the Valley why they think Arizona golf rocks.
What do you appreciate most about
the Valley golf scene?
Hahn: “To me it was a no-brainer for
our family to move here (from Califor-
nia). You have a choice of I think I
heard, 230 golf courses in the greater
Phoenix area. The availability of golf
clubs as well as how nice the people are
and the golf is amazing. Overall golf is
just thriving in Arizona.”
Streelman: “I remember driving to the
Valley for the first time for a Gateway
Tour event in 2002 and I remember see-
ing the mountains and the desert and it
was beautiful weather. I was just over-
whelmed by the amount of great golf. I
kind of knew right then that’s where I
wanted to spend the rest of my life.”
Baddeley: “The condition of the
courses year-round is pretty hard to
beat, to be honest. And you have a varie-
ty of courses. You don’t need to drive
far to play a desert course or at a tree-
lined club.”
Garrigus: “As a PGA Tour player
they’ll (golf clubs) let you on straight
away. You don’t have to be a member.
That’s not the case in other cities. In Ar-
izona it’s a little more, I don’t know what
the word is … they treat you like you’re
one of them, like you’re one of the mem-
bers. The people are nicer. There’s not
too many, I call them, robots.”
O’Toole: “I’ve only lived here since
May but it feels like there are a million
golf courses to play. There’s just some
cool golf that’s around. Where I live in
Scottsdale I’m within 15 minutes of a
bunch of great courses.”
Rahm: “You have an unlimited amount
of golf courses you can play. It’s unbe-
lievable. Even if you drive (90 minutes)
to Payson or two hours to Flagstaff you
have great golf courses up there to
play. Plus, there are so many Tour golf-
ers that live here that any day you can
have a fun match and compete against
guys that make you better.

OUR PANEL
SCOTT BORDOW AZCENTRAL SPORTS
What are your five favorite courses?
Barnes: “The TPC (Scottsdale) is up there. I love Whis-
per Rock. Phoenix Country Club because I love the
change of pace and I’d rank those the best greens in the
Valley. They’re unbelievable. Maybe Desert Forest and
then We-Ko-Pa, the walking course (Saguaro).”
Mayfair: “My favorite was always Desert Forest. I love
Phoenix Country Club. Whisper Rock, Pinnacle Peak
Country Club and a gem is the Wigwam Gold course.”
Rahm: “Whisper Rock, Desert Forest, Scottsdale Na-
tional, TPC and Phoenix Country Club. I like that course
a lot. I have never been able to shoot a low round there. I
had one round 8-under-par through 16 but I had to go
because I had class.”
Hahn: “I really, really like Scottsdale National. They
have a brand new par-3 course that’s called the Bad Lit-
tle Nine. That’s definitely my favorite to play. I just
played Estancia and I’d put that up there at No. 2. Some
of the views out there are amazing. Third I’m going to
say the TPC Scottsdale because the PGA Tour pays me a
lot. Fourth I would say Whisper Rock because it’s a
great club and you have a lot of PGA Tour pros who are
members up there. My fifth would be, Paradise Valley
Country Club. It’s a shorter course but the greens are
the best in the Valley.”
Garrigus: “My No. 1 is Silverleaf. It’s one of the more
challenging courses around the greens. I like the older
course at We-Ko-Pa. The Arnold Palmer course at Wild-
fire. Another one people don’t talk about is Terravita. I
like that one, too. Another one is the McCormick Ranch
Pine course.
Streelman: “The Upper course at Whisper Rock.
Scottsdale National’s new course. The Whisper Rock
lower. The TPC Stadium course. And Kierland, which
gave me my start.”
Baddeley: “My favorite is Desert Forest. Whisper
Rock is close to the best club I’ve ever been associated
with. I love the Talking Stick North course. And the Tal-
on and Raptor courses at Grayhawk.”
What advice would you give a foursome who might
be coming to the Valley for a week-long golf vaca-
tion?
Garrigus: “I’d just say make sure you play the golf that
isn’t so advertised. At the TPC they charge you so much
to play that golf course and when the amateurs come
out and play the course isn’t in great shape. You can play
a round of golf at a reasonable price at the Indian resort
courses like Talking Stick or We-Ko-Pa. I would prob-
ably say check out the Raven Golf Club,
too. That’s always been my favorite for
the public.”
O’Toole: “I would think you’d want to
play the TPC course and Wildfire be-
cause that’s where the PGA and LPGA
play. I think you’d want to find a mem-
ber to give you access to some of the
private clubs. There are a bunch of
good public courses, too, like Papago
and Troon North.”
Mayfair: “Go online and look up the
course ratings. I’d have to believe
places like Troon North and the TPC,
which are very well known, would be
great experiences. If you come here in
the summer go up north to Flagstaff
and Payson. There are great golf
courses up there that are hidden jew-
els.”
Streelman: “You have to play No. 16 at
TPC Scottsdale to try to measure what
it’s like to hit one in front of 30,000 peo-
ple.”
The 19th hole: Is there a restaurant, a
food item or even just a setting that
blows you away?
Hahn: “At Paradise Valley Country
Club there’s no menu and you can pret-
ty much order whatever you want. It’s
pretty good. I usually like having an
over-easy egg with bacon on a cheese
burger.”
Baddeley: “My family, we’re regulars
at Grayhawk. We’ll eat on the patio at
Phil’s Grill (named after Phil Mickel-
son). It’s very kid friendly and the food
is just rock solid. It’s just very relaxing.
You can watch people come down No. 18
on the Raptor course, feed the fish and
ducks and the kids can bring putters
and putt on the putting green. We love
the atmosphere.”
Garrigus: “I think it’s Tapatio Cliffs (at
Phoenix Pointe Hilton). The clubhouse
is right above the 18th hole and it’s the
highest point in the area. You can see all

$18,999 And that’s no exaggeration. Maravilla Scottsdale
Retirement Resort is tantalizingly close to TPC Scottsdale
golf course. It’s just next door. A dogleg southeast, if you will.
It truly is a great location to live for golfers and non-golfers
alike. In fact, most folks can’t help but feel a bit inspired when
surrounded by the beauty and glamour of north Scottsdale.
And Maravilla Scottsdale itself? With its resort lifestyle
you can be sure you’ll feel right at home. Just look at those
photos up there. And assisted living and memory care services
are always available if needed.
We invite you to see Maravilla Scottsdale for yourself at a
complimentary lunch and tour. (It’ll be a great walk unspoiled.)
