PALM BEACH GARDENS, Fla. – Tiger Woods isn’t playing his hometown event again this year.
Rory McIlroy lives in South Florida, and he’s passing on the Honda Classic, too.
The 49th edition of the event will feature No. 3 Brooks Koepka as the only player among the top 10 in the Official World Ranking, but Honda Classic executive director Ken Kennerly is promising fireworks nonetheless.
The skies above PGA National will light up with rockets amid concerts after play on Friday and Saturday, with Kennerly believing the stars that do show up are more than capable of putting on as spectacular a finish as they did a year ago.
