The WM Phoenix Open in Scottsdale, Arizona, is the highest-attended golf tournament on the PGA Tour. And as the event has grown, so has the number of hospitality options around the course, including the famous “stadium” hole 16. Behind the scenes, Arizona-based M Culinary Concepts has put together all that food and beverage at the hospitality areas for the past 26 tournaments. Special thanks to VP of Business Development Michael Stravos, who walked SportsTravel through the back-of-house operations where more than 1,000 employees each day are providing a first-class experience both in food cooked on site and, of course, plenty to drink.
