Couples makes the most of his chance
Fred Couples didn't realize until a few months ago that he wasn't eligible for The Players Championship, an event he has won twice and counts among his favorite.
Couples missed nearly all of last year with back problems, so he wasn't among the top 125 on the money list. But with so many players pulling out, from Tiger Woods to Martin Kaymer of Germany, Couples kept moving up the alternate list until he got in.
He made the most out of his 25th start at Sawgrass.

The best scores, as usual, belonged to just about everyone else - a course record-tying 63 by Scotland's Mhairi McKay, and a potential battle looming between Lorena Ochoa and Annika Sorenstam in the Michelob Ultra Open at Kingsmill.
