ORLANDO, Fla. (Nov. 15, 2012) – Golfweek, the most authentic, authoritative and independent voice in golf, has transformed its Nov. 16/23 double issue into a “birthday card” to celebrate Arizona’s 100th year of statehood. Honoring Arizona’s storied history with the game of golf, this dedicated issue is chock full of exclusive features exploring everything from the Grand Canyon State’s amazing courses and history to its deep tradition and character.
“Arizona has a rich history in helping to expand and popularize a great game,” said Golfweek editor Jeff Babineau. “We believed the state’s centennial earlier this year marked a terrific opportunity to trumpet and celebrate so many of the great things we love about Arizona and its golf. The courses, the history, the weather, the people … it was a lot of fun to put this together in one dedicated Arizona issue that we feel our readers will really enjoy.”
Highlights of Golfweek’s Arizona Issue include:
• A travel feature guiding readers through the beautiful splendor found both on and off the course while en route from Phoenix to Sedona and on to the Grand Canyon
• An insightful look at Arizona’s venerable golf history, from its very early days on through the inaugural Skins Game
