Phoenix Suns players Devin Booker, Jalen Green and Collin Gillespie stepped away from their on-court routines to attend “The People’s Open,” drawing excitement from fans throughout the grounds.

Long established as both a local and national staple on the sports calendar, the WM Phoenix Open blends elite golf with entertainment and pop culture. Its energetic atmosphere consistently attracts athletes and celebrities from across the sports world as the PGA Tour makes its annual stop in the desert.

The Suns trio not only took in the action but also interacted with fans, signing cups, posing for photos and enjoying a rare day away from basketball. Their presence reinforced the tournament’s roots in Arizona and highlighted the strong connection between the event and the local sports community.

Booker even leaned into the multi-sport spirit of the day, attending the event while wearing a Detroit Lions jersey — a fitting nod as Super Bowl LX coincided with the final round of the Open.

The blend of athletes, celebrities and fans continues to showcase why “The People’s Open” has earned its reputation as one of the most anticipated events of the year.

You never know who might show up.
