Default The Players Championship Shots

Hello,

I went to the Players Championship at TPC Sawgrass a few weeks ago and FINALLY got through all of the shots I took.. now I have to try to go back through and figure out who the golfers are in them.. This will probably involve holding the program from the tournament up to the screen comparing face, lol.

Was glad to finally get them posted, so I thought I would share.

This is one on the 17th (Island green) that I am particularly fond of..mainly because it was the one time during the day that the sun went behind a cloud and I wasn't blinded by the golfer's white shirt, lol.. :-)

The rest are on my flickr if you are so inclined.

Have a great Monday!

nice photo - if I'm not mistaken, I think that's Adam Scott we're looking at

As a staffer on the Florida Times Union, I remember shooting at Sawgrass during the Players Championship. There was one golfer, Calvin Pette, who was black, and always worn white visors and white shirts. I think he did this on purpose as that drastic tonal range really screwed with our light meters and was hard to get a decent exposure of his face. I feel your pain
