PONTE VEDRA BEACH, Fla. – From hot and humid to rain and wind to chilly and bitter cold, the Players Championship has seemingly endured all four seasons and everything but locusts and boils.
It took 54 hours, 16 minutes to complete the first round on Saturday and half that time to finally make the 36-hole cut on Sunday afternoon. As a result, the third round began, but players will have to finish at least 27 holes on Monday before a victor can be crowned.
How much has the Players lacked continuity? Sam Burns, one of the 36-hole co-leaders, said he had to ask his caddie what day it was today.
