Amazing Arizonans: Chance Cozby discusses WM Phoenix Open impact, cooking skills

Oct 30, 2024, 4:30 AM

PHOENIX — There are a few events that I consider Arizona signature events.

The WM Phoenix Open is definitely on top of that list. The Thunderbirds host this amazing tournament each year.

I sit down with the head of the organization, Chance Cozby. We talk about the massive growth of the tournament and the money that is raised.

The Thunderbirds give millions of dollars to Arizona nonprofit organizations. Chance also has a huge social media following.

He posts his recipes and cooking skills and has amassed about a million followers online.

I hope you enjoy the conversation.
