Another iteration of THE PLAYERS Championship will take place at TPC Sawgrass, which expects to feature one of the year’s strongest fields.
While he continues to make his way back from injury, Tiger Woods decided not to compete in this event, but I fully expect to see him again in a few weeks in Augusta. With some of the best players in the world currently at their very best, others are working hard to regain their form in preparation for the first Major tournament of the year, exactly one month away.
There are many high-wattage names on the list of previous winners of this event, such as Cam Smith last year, Justin Thomas (2021) and Rory McIlroy (2019). Going back further, there is a mixture of unexpected winners, such as Webb Simpson (2018) and Si-Woo Kim (2017).
Let’s look at this year’s competitors and determine who has the best shot at winning.
