Sixty players started the week at Verrado Golf Club in Buckeye, only for 14 of the field to be disqualified during the opening round after teeing off from an incorrect tee box.

The players had all hit their tee shots from the back tee box at par-three third hole, instead of where the official tournament tee markers were positioned at a further forward tee.
