The PLAYERS Championship

Thursday, March 13th

Mr. Commish,


Rasmus Neergaard-Petersen, you were right there! Your third round 73 left me wondering what might have been, but a valiant charge on Sunday vaulted you into second place at the Puerto Rico Open in your first ever PGA TOUR event. Man, that could have been an all-time great random winning fantasy golf pick if there ever was one. Of course, Scottie Scheffler won more money with his 11th place finish at The Arnie than Rasmus earned for finishing runner up. But, like all the professional athletes say, we don't do this stuff for the money; it's for the thrill of competition, ultimate victory, and the championships. (Oh, who am I kidding? It's all about the money. Damn you, Puerto Rico and your weak, Korn Ferry-esque tournament purse!)


We head to Ponte Vedra Beach for the granddaddy of them all, the strongest field of the year, the biggest money $ignature event on the circuit, The PLAYERS Championship. After a week of squandering Scottie (You know, Squandering Scottie would be a great title for a fantasy golf reality show. I will have my people contact Netflix as soon as I am done typing this!), I don't have the option of picking the defending champion. Even worse, I have already used most of the top betting favorites, so even Las Vegas is conspiring against me. But I do have this guy. A Ryder Cup hero for the Europeans, he has 8 career wins internationally. For some reason, he hasn't gotten it done on the PGA TOUR just yet. I mean, the dude has had 5 runner up finishes, and finished third place another 5 times. He is due! There would be no better place to notch that first win stateside than a shotmaker's paradise like TPC Sawgrass. Three cheers for the pride of Southport, Merseyside, England, husband of Clare, father of Oscar, Mo, and Frankie, actor and influencer, Golfing Jesus himself, Mr. Tommy Fleetwood!
