It’s the end of an era, and there’s likely nowhere the impact will be felt more than in the greater Phoenix area.
Pre-qualifying registration for the 2025 WM Phoenix Open went live Monday. There will eight locations in five different cities in Arizona in late January holding these events, with them all funneling players into a Monday qualifier on Feb. 3. From there, only the top three finishers will earn a spot on the tee sheet at TPC Scottsdale, Feb. 6-9, for the Greenest Show on Grass.
This time, however, marks the final time in the wake of the PGA Tour instituting a new rule regarding qualifiers.
The Southwest Section PGA, which has run the pre-qualifying and Monday qualifying for years, is urging interested golfers to not delay and sign up now “as all sites will fill up.”
The Phoenix Open qualifier earlier this year drew 104 golfers after more than 600 signed up for one of the eight pre-qualifiers. The max field size for each pre-Q will be 84. Multiply that by the eight locations and that’s possibly 672 golfers with visions of greatness dancing in their heads.
If you’re going to register, the PGA Tour rules say you can only do so at one pre-Q site.
