Getting your player ready...
The sky was overcast Saturday with a threat of rain at TPC Scottsdale for the Phoenix Open. Perhaps that’s why the crowd was more than 40,000 shy of the estimated 164,000 who attended on Saturday a year ago. But the scene was as wild as usual at the notorious 16th hole, where bleachers surround the par-3 and fans have special chants for virtually every golfer. “It was crazy,” leader Brandt Snedeker said. “We need people out here having fun, being excited about being at a golf tournament. If you can’t take it for one hole, good God, get over yourself and have some fun.”The Associated Press
