WEATHER UPDATES
We're expecting rain on and off during the event, so be prepared for weather impacts, including parking changes.
"Due to the hard rains yesterday and last night, many of our grass field parking lots are too wet to be utilized today," event officials said Wednesday morning. "Tournament officials recommend all parking pass holders park at our Westworld location and take the free shuttle to the tournament. For general tournament parking today we recommend using our Salt River Fields parking location, which also offers free shuttle service to the tournament entrance."
Just heard from @WMPhoenixOpen officials. They ask those coming to TPC Scottsdale to park at @SaltRiverFields or WestWorld of Scottsdale then shuttle over to the course. It’s all free.
