TPC Sawgrass plays host to The Players Championship once again and, being the PGA Tour's flagship event, a huge field is set to be present in Florida.

Providing the largest tournament purse in professional golf, aside from the FedEx Cup playoffs, The Players Championship brings the best of the PGA Tour together round one of the most iconic courses in the world.

Taking up the game when he was just seven years of age, Matt made it into his county squad just a year later and continues to play the game at a high standard, with a handicap of around 2-4.

He currently plays at Witney Lakes in Oxfordshire and his favourite player is Rory McIlroy, despite nearly being struck by his second shot at the 17th during the 2015 BMW PGA Championship.
