Since its start in 1974, with Jack Nicklaus' victory over J.C. Snead, THE PLAYERS Championship has been one of the PGA TOUR's most coveted titles. In 1982 it was moved to its permanent home at The TPC Sawgrass and it never looked back.

From Jerry Pate's tossing Pete Dye into the lake at hole 18 to Tiger's 2001 break-through victory... the event has set the stage for PGA TOUR drama.
