With 48 of the top 50 ranked players in the current world standings it’s already a great field turning up at TPC Sawgrass for The Players Championship on Thursday but actually all 144 have either won a tour event in the last 12 months, was ranked in the top 125 of last years FedEx cup list, has won a major or the players championship in the last 5 years. An inspiring list of golf professionals.
This years field contains 8 previous winners with Scottie Scheffler looking to do the three-peat and Adam Scott attempting to roll back the years and add to his 2004 win.
There are twenty-five players turning up for their first players championship looking to become only the 2nd newcomer, and first in 23 years, to win the event.
As expected Scottie Scheffler leads the betting on an outwright win followed by Colin Morikawa and Rory McIlroy but Ludvig Aberg as a 16/1 chance is coming in on some great form.
Looks like an exciting event coming up!
