Tournament News
Getty ImagesThis week marks the beginning of the 50th year of THE PLAYERS Championship, which is being held at the Stadium Course of TPC Sawgrass. Built in 1980, the Stadium Course is well known for its distinctive "Island Green" on the 17th hole.
Even though the official scorecard lists the 17th hole at TPC Sawgrass as 137 yards long, it's a very difficult par-3. Last year, a whopping 58 balls found the water, and three players scored a hole-in-one.
Following his amazing victory at the Arnold Palmer Invitational presented by Mastercard, Scottie Scheffler, who is currently ranked #1 in the world, is attempting to make history by becoming the first golfer in the history of the sport to record back-to-back triumphs at THE PLAYERS. It is expected that former PLAYERS champions Rory McIlroy and Justin Thomas, as well as the current FedExCup champion Viktor Hovland, will be returning to the renowned island green.
Schauffele, who finished tied for second place in the 2018 Players Championship, is one competitor who might win the event for the first time. Schauffele has a strong record this year, having placed in the top 10 in four of the six events he has entered. It is expected that he will continue to gain ground at TPC Sawgrass.
Golfers will compete for the biggest prize purse in the sport's history: $25 million. The winner will receive a $4.5 million share.
