The Players Championship Then and Now

The PLAYERS may no longer be the fifth major. But it’s still a great tournament, thanks to its strong field, its designer and it’s money. In 1982, its first year at the Sawgrass Stadium course, the total prize money equaled $500,000. This year, the prize money will be more than $9.5 million, the richest event on the Tour.
