What makes The Players Championship so special?
It started with Jack Nicklaus’ victory in 1974 and it’s easy to see why it’s become such a popular event on the PGA Tour. The Players Championship has a reputation of leading to further success, with five players having won The Players and a major championship in the same year: Jack Nicklaus (1978, The Open), Hal Sutton (1983, The PGA Championship), Tiger Woods (2001, The Masters), Martin Kaymer (2014, The U.S. Open), and Cameron Smith recently (2022, The Open).
The Players Championship is regarded as one of the best events in golf. Since the inaugural event took place in 1974, the buzz created at The Players makes it simply one of the best tournaments to witness. Memorable in every golf fan’s minds is when Tiger Woods hit his “better than most” putt onto the 17th hole, bringing him to take his 26th win in 2001.
TPC Sawgrass
You can golf all year round at the award-winning TPC Sawgrass. Here, passionate golf fans can walk in the footsteps of their heroes and get the chance to play like a pro. With two courses, The Players Stadium Course and Dye’s Valley Course, golfers are able to take their pick depending on their skill level and have the experience of a lifetime.
Dye’s Valley Course allows golfers of all levels to experience The Players’ mindset. Designed by legendary architects, Pete Dye, Bobby Weed and Jerry Pate, water hazards are a significant part of this play, lining most holes and giving a forced carry, similar to that of its famous neighboring course.
At TPC Sawgrass, you can also take advantage of the personal forecaddies available to educate golfers on the history, and heritage of these incredible courses. For most, a visit to Sawgrass is for The Players Stadium Course, which is not only memorable for the tournament itself but for the famous par-3 17th-hole. Known as
the ‘Island Green’, this hole is arguably one of, if not the most famous hole in golf. It’s a mere 137-yard shot and if missed short, long, left or right, the odds are not in your favor as the ball heads into the surrounding water. You can even hit the green and find the water.
