How to watch PGA Tour’s the Players Championship on ESPN+
The next event on the 2023 PGA Tour is the Players Championship, which begins on Thursday. Often referred to as the unofficial “fifth major” on the Tour, the Players Championship will be played at TPC Sawgrass, a par-72 course located in Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida. The tournament’s winning purse is $25 million because it is an elevated PGA Tour event.
The Players will feature several top golfers like Rory McIlroy, Scottie Scheffler, Xander Schauffele, Jon Rahm, Max Homa and Jordan Spieth. The winner of the event will walk away with $4.5 million, a record for the largest winner’s share in PGA Tour history. Golfers should prepare for hole No. 17, nicknamed the “island hole.” According to ESPN Stats & Information research, 27 balls were hit into the water at that hole last year, the most in the ShotLink tracking era (since 2003).
