The Loop
2017 Honda Classic tee times, TV guide, fantasy advice and leaderboard
David Cannon
The Honda Classic was established in 1972, but the event has grown in stature since moving to PGA National in 2007. Originally designed by George and Tom Fazio, a redesign by Jack Nicklaus in 2002 has turned this into one of the toughest tour venues, thanks in large part to "The Bear Trap," a brutal stretch made up of holes 15-17. In the 10 years that PGA National has hosted the event, only twice has the winner finished double digits under par. With Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy withdrawing due to injuries, the field for the first event of the tour's Florida Swing isn't as strong as it has been the past few years, but three of the top 10 in the Official World Golf Ranking and 12 of the top 25 will be in Palm Beach Gardens. The highest-ranked of those players, No. 7 Adam Scott, is the defending champion.
