PGA Tour releases 2022-23 schedule; WM Phoenix Open set for Feb. 9-12

The 2023 WM Phoenix Open will be Feb. 9-12 at TPC Scottsdale and will once again conclude on Super Bowl Sunday.

And it should be a fun sports weekend. For the first time since 2015, Arizona will host both events, as Super Bowl LVII is set for Glendale's State Farm Stadium on Feb. 12.

The PGA Tour announced its 2022-23 schedule Monday. This will be the final time the Tour uses the "wrap-around" format in which the season starts in September of 2022 and concludes in August of 2023. Starting in 2024, the PGA Tour schedule will start in January and end later that same year.

Pat Williams will be Tournament Chairman in 2023 for the Phoenix Open while George Thimsen will serve as Assistant Tournament Chairman, which puts him in position to be Tournament Chairman in 2024.

There are 47 events on the 2022-23 schedule. The 2023 major championships are the Masters (April 6-9), the PGA Championship at Oak Hill Country Club in Rochester, New York (May 18-21), the U.S. Open at Los Angeles Country Club (June 15-18) and the Open Championship at Royal Liverpool in Hoylake, England (July 20-23).

ASU commit wins U.S. Junior Amateur

Wenyi Ding won the 74th U.S. Junior Amateur at Bandon Dunes in Oregon last Saturday, clinching the title with a 3-and-2 victory over Caleb Surratt.

Ding is the first male golfer from China to win a U.S. Golf Association championship. He's also the first international champion of the Junior Am since Min Woo Lee in 2016. Ding, 17, is committed to play college golf at Arizona State. He will be a freshman for the 2023-24 season. In the quarterfinals of the Junior Am, Ding knocked out Luke Potter of San Diego. Potter is also an ASU signee. He is already signed and will join the team this fall as a freshman.

Historic LPGA major starts Thursday

Former ASU golfer Anna Nordqvist returns to defend her title this week at the 2022 AIG Women's British Open, which will be staged at historic Muirfield in Scotland.

It was just three years ago that Muirfield invited its first women members in its 275 years. Now the club’s membership will complete the 180-degree change of heart by crowning a female major champion who will join a list of 16 men who have won an Open at Muirfield, including the likes of Harry Vardon, Walter Hagen, Gary Player, Jack Nicklaus, Lee Trevino, Tom Watson, Nick Faldo, Ernie Els and Phil Mickelson.

“Muirfield is possibly one of the purest tests of golf in the world,” said Catriona Matthew, a former Women’s British Open winner who lives four miles down the road at North Berwick.

The Arizona Biltmore Golf Club's Adobe Golf Course and driving range is closed for August and September and will reopen in October after overseeding. Next summer, the William Bell-design, which first opened in 1929, will undergo a renovation by the Lehman Design Group. Green complexes will be renovated, tee boxes will be leveled, and bunkers will be rebuilt with a new drainage and liner system. ... Forbes magazine estimates that Phil Mickelson, with $138 million in earnings, was the world’s highest-paid athlete over the last year, beating worldwide soccer star Lionel Messi, who earned $130 million. The former ASU standout and five-time major champion made the bulk of that by joining the breakaway LIV Golf circuit. Forbes reports that Mickelson received a $200 million guarantee from LIV with half of that coming up front.

Concerns over the spread of the COVID-19 virus have caused the cancellation or postponement of sporting events throughout the world.

Masters a reunion of the world’s best players. But the numbers are shrinking

AUGUSTA, Ga. (AP) — More than golf’s first major championship of the year, the Masters represents unification. This is the first time since July at the British Open the best players regardless of their tours compete against each other — same course, same tournament, same television network.

“I believe everyone agrees there’s excitement in the air this week,” Masters Chairman Fred Ridley said Wednesday. “The best players in the world are together once again.”

Still unclear at Augusta National is for how much longer.

Saudi-funded LIV Golf has 13 players at the Masters, seven of them former champions who can play as long as they want. That’s down from 18 a year ago. Only nine LIV players are assured of being back to Augusta National next year, depending on how they fare in the majors this year.

Ridley offered little hope the pathway for LIV to Augusta National was about to get wider.

He said the Official World Golf Ranking was a “legitimate determiner” of the best in golf, bad news for a rival league that does not get world ranking points. And while the Masters annually reviews its criteria for invitations, Ridley announced no new changes.

Instead, he leaned on the Masters being an invitational, and the club alone decides who it deems worthy of getting that elegant, cream-colored invitation in the mail.

“If we felt that there were a player or players, whether they played on the LIV Tour or any other tour, who were deserving of an invitation to the Masters, we would exercise that discretion with regard to special invitations,” Ridley said.

The battle is for a green jacket, but that might not be the only competition.

It will be difficult to look at a leaderboard without considering who is with LIV Golf. That much hasn’t changed from last year — the first Masters since LIV was launched — and LIV certainly showed the 54-hole, no-cut league didn’t affect them. Three players were among the top four on the final leaderboard.

And just like last year, there is no animosity inside the ropes.

Phil Mickelson and Joaquin Niemann from LIV Golf played a practice round with Akshay Bhatia, the final player into the field because of his Texas Open victory last week. Xander Schauffele told of running into Dustin Johnson and the two decided to play a practice round, no different from what would have happened long before LIV began luring away players with guaranteed riches.

But the future remains murky.

Augusta National and the other three organizations that run majors have seats on the OWGR board that reviewed LIV’s application to join and get world ranking points. The vote was unanimous not to award points until certain enhancements were met.

LIV eventually decided to withdraw its application , and several players decried the world ranking as no longer relevant.

It is to Ridley and the Masters. The top 50 at the end of the year and a week before the Masters still get invitations. Bryson DeChambeau said the majors, including the Masters, should invite the top 12 from the LIV points list.

Ridley wasn’t buying that.

“I think it will be difficult to establish any type of point system that had any connection to the rest of the world of golf because they’re basically — not totally, but for the most part — a closed shop,” Ridley said. “There is some relegation, but not very much.

“But I don’t think that prevents us from giving subjective consideration based on talent, based on performance to those players.”

That’s what led Augusta National to offer an invitation to Niemann. The club did not cite anything he did on LIV — the Chilean has two LIV wins this year — but his willingness to travel outside LIV and win the Australian Open, along with a top finish in the Australian PGA.

Talor Gooch did not get an invitation. He won three LIV events last year and later suggested Rory McIlroy would have an asterisk next to his name if he won the Masters because all the best aren’t there.

Gooch is unlikely to be missed, not with Scottie Scheffler going for a second green jacket, with McIlroy chasing the career Grand Slam, Tiger Woods playing for only the second time this year and a host of others from all tours chasing one of golf’s most prized possessions.

And then the PGA Tour will head to Hilton Head and LIV Golf will make its way to Australia, and they all have to wait until the next major May 16-19 at the PGA Championship.

“There’s a lot of people a lot smarter than me that could figure this out in a much more efficient way,” Jon Rahm said. “But the obvious answer is that there’s got to be a way for certain players in whatever tour to be able to earn their way in. That’s the only thing can I say. I don’t know what that looks like. But there’s got to be a fair way for everybody to compete.”
