With many of the world’s top golfers playing at peak levels and the proceeds from ticket sales benefiting local charities, there’s nothing not to like about the Tampa Bay Championship. This phenomenal tournament is scheduled to take place from Thursday, March 14th to Sunday, March 17th, and it’s all happening on the idyllic Copperhead Course at Innisbrook Resort & Golf Club in Palm Harbor, Florida. Once again, 156 of the PGA Tour’s finest golfers will be competing for a total purse of $5,500,000, and the winner will receive $990,000 and 500 FedExCup Points. With prize winnings like that up for grabs, it’s no surprise that this tournament is always extremely competitive, and subsequently, it’s also an extraordinarily fun event watch.
At last year’s tournament, England’s Luke Donald won his third PGA Tour event in fourteen months and returned to No. 1 spot in the Official World Golf Ranking. Donald emerged victorious by shooting thirteen-under par through 72 holes, and then beating out Jim Furyk, Sang-Moon Bae, and Robert Garrigus with a birdie on the first hole in a riveting playoff. Over the years, stars of the game like Vijay Singh, Retief Goosen, Jim Furyk, and K.J. Choi have all claimed victories at this beautiful course, so make sure to purchase your 2013 Tampa Bay Championship tickets today and be there to see who’s up next. Nothing beats a wonderful weekend of golf in the Florida sunshine, so get your tickets as soon as possible.
