SI WOO KIM – PLAYERS CHAMPION 2017 Si Woo Kim became the youngest Players Championship winner ever in 2017

On a week where 67 balls went into the water on the iconic 17th hole at TPC Sawgrass, a run of superstar champions ended with the emergence of 21-year-old Si Woo Kim from South Korea.

Kim had just one bogey all weekend, outlasting a course that caused so many to post big numbers at one of the PGA Tour's signature event.

He played the course no worse than even with three under-par rounds. Kim was hitting driver off the deck on Saturday and driving the green at 12 on Sunday, playing phenomenal golf and riding a nine-hole par train all the way to his historic win. Congratulations!

It is an exciting hole, a dramatic hole. Majors test skill, patience and nerves. At times, they require luck. Since 2003, more than 550 shots have found the drink surrounding the island green. In Round 1 of the 2007 Players Championship alone, there were 50 balls in the water. How many balls will be hit into the water on the notorious 17th during THE PLAYERS Championship in 2018?
