Golfdom Gallery: The Players Championship
Ready to rock: Lucas Andrews, assistant director of golf operations, TPC Sawgrass, and Jeff Plotts, director of golf course maintenance, TPC Sawgrass, moments before Andrews addressed the maintenance team and got them fired up to take on afternoon maintenance during the 2025 Players Championship.
Tacos at 12: The Quali-Pro crew stopped by the taco stand near the No. 12 green to enjoy some great food and drinks on a beautiful day at TPC Sawgrass. From left to right are Allan Fulcher, vice president, turf, Quali-Pro; Erica Cardenas, marketing communications manager, Quali-Pro; Ryan Karapas, marketing director, Quali-Pro; Cal Hill, Gulf Coast area manager, Quali-Pro; Jeff Rampino, Florida territory manager, Quali-Pro and Denton Kurtz, Florida territory manager, BWI Companies.
Feeling good again: He’s already finished in second place twice in this young PGA Tour season at the American Express and the Valspar Championship, and brought home his first tour victory since 2022 at the RBC Heritage — giving Justin Thomas plenty to smile about.
All we need is a Miracle (and a McKay): (Left to right) Stephanie McKay, national account manager, Envu; Michael Miracle, national account manager, Envu; and Seth Jones, Golfdom editor-in-chief, met up at the TPC Sawgrass maintenance facility for this photo.
The blue crew: These members of the TPC Sawgrass grounds crew looked ready for anything during the Players Championship — including a Monday morning finish when Rory McIlroy and J.J. Spaun went to a playoff.
Break room reading: Before we wrapped up our Players Championship experience, we were sure to drop off 50 copies of Golfdom for the crew and volunteers to read while they were on break (it was the least we could do, especially considering all the Gatorades we helped ourselves to from their break room).
