The Players Championship Tickets

Every year in March, golf fans head to the Sawgrass Country Club in Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida with their PLAYERS Championship tickets in hand. This tournament is the most prestigious non-major tournament of the entire tour, which has led to the tournament being dubbed the “fifth major” by many in the media.

Fans first purchased PLAYERS Championship golf tickets in 1974 when the tournament was first played. At this time, holders of PLAYERS Championship tickets watched the golf action at the Sawgrass Country Club’s Oceanside Course, across the street from where it is played now. In this first year, fans with PLAYERS Championship golf tickets saw living legend Jack Nicklaus emerge victorious.

It is no wonder why many fans with PLAYERS Championship tickets, like the media, think of the PLAYERS Championship as a fifth major. The tournament offers the largest purse of the entire tour, totaling $8 million in 2005. Additionally, it awards 40 points to the winning golfer’s World Golf Ranking; all four majors award 50 points each.

Currently, golf officials are making plans to change the date of the tournament. By 2007, holders of PLAYERS Championship golf tickets will most likely watch the tournament in May instead of in the traditional month of March. This change will put five prestigious PGA events, including the PLAYERS Championship and the four major tournaments, in five consecutive months from April through August.
