Before seeing the pitching aces on the mound in Chase Field, Diamondback fans will see the much-anticipated duo of Gallen and Burnes on the green. While Burnes is new to the TPC Scottsdale Courses, his rotation-mate in Gallen is a veteran of the golf event.
This year’s Annexus Pro-Am will be Gallen’s third appearance, his other two coming in 2021 and 2024. Lovullo joins Gallen again this year, making back-to-back appearances at the celebrity event.
