      Behind the scenes with Scottie Scheffler after PLAYERS win

      Written by Staff, PGATOUR.COM

      The Florida Swing continues at the 51st edition of the THE PLAYERS Championship in Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida, contested at TPC Sawgrass' Stadium Course from March 13-16.

      Back-to-back champion and world No. 1 Scottie Scheffler and other past champions, including Rory McIlroy, Jason Day and Justin Thomas make their return to TPC Sawgrass.

      The PGA TOUR uses a standardized system for determining event fields, based on the current season’s Priority Ranking while also including additional exemption and qualifying categories.

      Field sizes can vary by event, as can the number of event-specific exemptions. Fully exempt PGA TOUR members are guaranteed entry into all Full-Field Events, with various conditional categories subject to periodic reshuffles based upon FedExCup Points accrued throughout the season. Categories with "reshuffle" notation indicate that a reshuffle period has occurred.

      Note: An additional year of eligibility was granted to some categories because of the COVID-19 pandemic.
