The crux of our trip to Arizona was to visit the WM Phoenix Open, also known as “The Greenest Show on Grass.”
We headed to TPC Scottsdale on Wednesday morning for the Annexus Pro-Am, with plans of seeing great golf, rubbing elbows with celebrities, basking in the sun and enjoying a bloody mary or three.
Unfortunately, Mother Nature had other plans. The day started out chilly and overcast in the morning and as the day progressed, quickly devolved into rain and, ultimately, hail.

Anyway, this event is known for it’s fun, party-like atmosphere and this year, the golf tournament made the news as fans partied maybe a little TOO hard at the famous 16th hole and elsewhere.
I can assure you, Out for Bloodies was not part of that crowd. We couldn’t have been even if we had tried because we were so chilly we didn’t even want to hold a cold beverage lest our hands become even icier.
However, we had to at least have one Bloody Mary, which is seen here.
The flavor was good, but didn’t really stand out; it also came with just one olive-no other fixin’s. And I regret to inform you, I do not know the price as this round was purchased by a friend. I do know chasers weren’t included, though, because they also bought a round of beers.
Again, I wish the weather had been nicer and I could’ve enjoyed this bloody a bit more instead of sipping it through my chattering teeth. I tracked down a coffee truck right after this and that’s all I had the rest of the day as the skies opened up and play was suspended.
Hopefully we’ll have the chance to return another time and try again!
