Hoping for a Power play at the Players
The happiest man in the field at The Players Championship may just be Seamus Power. He joins Rory McIlroy, who has recorded top-6 finishes in his last five starts, and Shane Lowry, winner of the Abu Dhabi HSBC Championship, among the Irish golfers in the field and is one of 20 players making his debut in what is widely considered the fifth major in golf.
Power qualified for the championship by finishing No 125 in the 2017-18 FedEx Cup Points List, earning his berth into the playoffs on the number and keeping his card for the new season.
