Foundation Receives Donation from Waste Management "Party Pants"
Embracing the irreverent spirit of the Waste Management Phoenix Open, Waste Management (WM) unveiled its third annual version of Loudmouth Golf “WMPO Party Pants” and for the first time they were also available for purchase in the official tournament merchandise shop. Loudmouth sourced Unifi’s REPREVE fabric made with 30 percent recycled content from plastic bottles to produce the merchandise.

Fans sporting the fun fashion translated to WM supporting a $10,000 contribution to the Foundation for Plastic Recycling.
