In 42 years at Sawgrass, that's an average of 24 golf balls going splash down each tournament. The field of 144 will hit about 430 tee balls on the 17th hole over the course of four days in 2026, so expect about five percent of this year's tee shots to end up in the drink.

The 17th hole at TPC Sawgrass is one of golf’s great arenas. Come here to witness both triumph and disaster, glory and tragedy.
