The PGA Tour heads to its marquee event this week with The Players at TPC Sawgrass. Unofficially labeled “golf’s fifth major,” The Players doesn’t just boast prestige — but a huge payday. This year, the purse is up $20 million. The winner will be cashing in a $3.6 million check, the largest in Tour history. With this being the Tour’s crown jewel, the ability to watch the action will be enhanced.
