Jelly Roll showed up 30 minutes late for the WM Phoenix Open pro-am
Jelly Roll really needed a favor from the starter at the WM Phoenix Open pro-am on Wednesday, but he wasn't about to get it. Tee times, of course, aren't written in pencil but rather etched in pen, especially at a PGA Tour event. But according to Theo Mackie of the Arizona Republic, when Jelly Roll's name was called for the 9:50 a.m. tee time on Wednesday, the man originally named Jason Bradley DeFord was nowhere to be found. According to Mackie's piece, the starter joked "Jelly Roll must be on rockstar time." More from the story: Roughly half an hour later, Jelly Roll showed up to the course, where he was hounded for autographs and selfies before eventually joining up with the rest of his group, which features PGA Tour players J.T. Poston and Taylor Moore. Later on Wednesday, Jelly Roll is headlining the opening night of the Coors Light Birds Nest concert series, with Treaty Oak Revival opening. The 2025 WM Phoenix Open is set to begin Thursday at TPC Scottsdale in Arizona. Nick Taylor is the defending champion, beating Charley Hoffman on the second playoff hole a year ago to win the title. World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler, who won this event in 2022 and 2023 before a T-3 last year, is also in the field, as is Hideki Matsuyama, Justin Thomas, Sepp Straka and amateur Luke Clanton, among others.
