Coming This Week: Live From The PLAYERS

The last time I was at TPC Sawgrass...note the Lehman-esque left leg action. Photo by Lynn Shackelford. (Click to enlarge)You know I'm concerned for my well-being when passing up the traditional Fifth of Four Majors jab. Shoot I'm even typing PLAYERS in all caps. Sometimes.

Get this, I haven't even attended the Commissioner's Southern Style Pig Roast yet. Imagine how much I'll be swooning after that?

Yes, it's true, starting Wednesday I'll be coming to you live from The Players Championship. Therefore the art department, a.k.a Tom Naccarato, crafted a special banner for this week. replete with assorted imagery closely associated with the fifth of...the PLAYERS.

This will be my first time in Jacksonville since Mr. Reagan was in office, so I'm looking forward to revisiting golf's wildest arena.

I'm not entirely sure what the week will bring coverage-wise. I do know I'll be sharing a few photos taken by my dad Lynn when we played the course in 1988, with modern day comparisons taken this week.  I'm sure there will be a few caption contests, full reports from the Stadium Players Village, lunchroom menus from the Sheik's palace clubhouse, insights into the weekend course setup and whatever else I can find time to blog about. 

If there's anything you've been dying to know about or see from TPC Sawgrass, email me and I'll see if I can help.
