The PLAYERS Championship is one of the most prestigious events on the PGA TOUR, and it's always a special week for me. I've been fortunate enough to play in the tournament several times, and I always love the challenge of playing on one of the toughest courses in the world.
The TPC Sawgrass Stadium Course is a par-72 layout that measures 7,215 yards. It's a long course, but it's also very fair. The greens are large and undulating, and the fairways are generous. But what makes the course so difficult is the wind. The wind is always a factor at TPC Sawgrass, and it can make the course play much longer.
The most famous hole on the course is the par-3 17th hole, which is known as the "Island Green." The hole is 132 yards long, and the green is surrounded by water. It's a very difficult hole, but it's also one of the most iconic holes in golf.
I've had some great moments at the PLAYERS Championship over the years. In 2013, I finished tied for second place. And in 2015, I finished tied for fourth place. I'm always looking forward to playing in the tournament, and I'm hoping to have another good week this year.
The PLAYERS Championship is a great tournament for fans. The atmosphere is electric, and the fans are always very passionate. It's a great week to be a part of the PGA TOUR.
Here are a few things that I think make the PLAYERS Championship so special:
