After a finish worthy of the hype for THE PLAYERS Championship, the PGA Tour heads down the Florida coast to Palm Beach where the beast that is PGA National awaits for the Honda Classic. The Champion course is one of the most demanding on Tour, and unfortunately, that challenge will be a hard pass for many golfers who have had a WGC event plus Sawgrass on the schedule the past few weeks, many of whom also played in either the California capstone at Riviera or the sandwiched Arnold Palmer Invitational.
This full-field event is noticeably thin on star power, with defending champion Sungjae Im and Palm Beach resident Daniel Berger the highest-ranked players in the field and the only players in the top 20 in the Official World Golf Ranking teeing it up this week.
