The Players Championship, organized by the PGA Tour, is being held at TPC Sawgrass in Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida, this year, from March 9 to 12, 2023. This prestigious tournament attracts the world’s top golfers, all vying for the coveted championship title and a share of the prize money.
Unfortunately, the defending champion, Cameron Smith, will not be able to defend his title due to his ineligibility to compete. Smith is one of several players who have been suspended by the PGA Tour for joining LIV Golf, making him ineligible to participate in the tournament.
