ROUGH WEEKEND AT THE PLAYERS

Georgia Tech has good representation at The Players Championship last weekend at Ponte Vedra Beach, Fla., but the TPC Sawgrass course won as all four Yellow Jackets – Stewart Cink, Cameron Tringale, Richy Werenski and Matt Kuchar – missed the cut. None of their performances significantly impacted their standing in the FedEx Cup, with Tringale falling the farthest (seven spots) to No. 42.

The PGA Tour heads to the rugged PGA National course in Palm Beach Gardens, Fla., this weekend for the Honda Classic, where Cink, Tringale, Werenski, Chesson Hadley and Vincent Whaley are in the field.

Reeves, on the strength of his win last summer at the Pinnacle Bank Championship, sits No. 20 in the Korn Ferry Tour points race as the highest-ranked Yellow Jacket.
