- 5th major
- Strongest field of the year

Most recognizable par 3 and easiest par 3 on the course.

Maybe it could be added as the Shanks 5th Bragging Pool of the year.

And throw Tiger's absence / Tiger's back in the mix as well.

Was watching golf channel before the hockey last night, and they had their panel show on.
They must have done 20 minutes talking about Tiger and his historical performance at TPC Sawgrass.
I actually said out loud to the tv: "You guys know he's not playing, right?"

And greens worse than a complete goat track...

Putting will resemble the plinko game on the price is right...

I just exchanged a few emails with a friend on site.

He said they greens look like shite, but for the most part roll well. They're keeping 3 greens out of play till Thursday, and the biggest problem he sees is that they will lose a few Sunday pin positions.

It's pretty interesting that they have changed the Players playoff format this year.............it will now be a three hole aggregate (holes 16, 17, and 18), similar to the PGA Championship.............I like the change

Re: Players Championship.... Spoiler Alert

Westwood off to another great start, can he play well for 4 rounds?

Coaching change ( he left Foley) seems to have worked for him, a win in Asia and some good play

Re: Players Championship.... Spoiler Alert

Soft greens , great scoring on day 1

[shankuverymuch]

Re: Players Championship.... Spoiler Alert

Another close run for THE EASIEST PAR 3 ON THE COURSE:

Round 1:

hole #3 Avg. 2.99
hole #8 Avg. 3.25
hole #13 Avg. 3.12
hole #17 Avg. 3.02

Hearn is 10 under, 3 behind the leaders, with 9 holes to go.

Let's hope Hearn can salvage this boring tournament. GO HEARN!

[Lefty17]

Re: Players Championship.... Spoiler Alert

Hearn sniffing around the lead. Just make play the back in 2 under and you have a chance.

Not the greatest Players I've ever witnessed.

Re: Players Championship.... Spoiler Alert

Mcilroy plays the back nine in 17 under over 4 days, shame he couldn't do anything on the front.
