Hubbard Electrifies Waste Management 16th Hole in Broncos Jersey

Mark Hubbard delivered one of the most memorable moments at this year’s Waste Management Phoenix Open, turning heads and fueling crowd excitement as he sported a Denver Broncos jersey while taking on the tournament’s iconic 16th hole.

The 16th at TPC Scottsdale is renowned as golf’s most raucous stage—a stadium-style par-3 where thousands of fans bring football-level energy to the PGA Tour. This year, Hubbard elevated the spectacle by embracing the arena’s atmosphere in his own way, stepping up to the tee clad in the familiar orange of the Broncos, his hometown NFL team.

• Hubbard’s bold wardrobe choice drew immediate attention from both fans and broadcasters.
• The crowd, known for its creative costumes and boisterous cheers, responded with even greater enthusiasm as Hubbard soaked in the moment.
• His decision paid tribute to Denver sports while tapping into the crossover energy between the NFL and PGA Tour fans.

While the Waste Management Phoenix Open is famous for fun and fan interaction, player participation in the spectacle is rarer. By donning the Broncos jersey, Hubbard joined a select group of pros who have embraced the hole’s party atmosphere, earning cheers and new admirers.

Though official statistics for the shot were not immediately highlighted, the moment was less about score and more about showmanship. The Golf Channel spotlighted Hubbard’s performance, noting the unique scene and the crowd’s reaction as he played the hole in full Broncos regalia.

As the Waste Management Phoenix Open continues to blend high-level golf with fan-friendly antics, Hubbard’s jersey moment stands out as a reminder of the event’s unique spirit and the growing trend of athletes connecting with their fans in creative ways.
