PONTE VEDRA BEACH, Fla. – Mother Nature continues to inflict harm on the PGA Tour’s signature event. A Monday finish to the Players Championship is likely and a Tuesday finish isn’t out of the question.
Play was suspended at 11:15 a.m. due to unplayable conditions at the Players Stadium Course at TPC Sawgrass with the first round still unfinished.
PGA Tour’s chief referee Gary Young said the course has received 2 ½ inches of rain in the last 24 hours. The staff battled tough conditions, including using squeegees for puddles on greens, but it was a losing battle.
