The Players is a fantastic family-friendly event. The food offerings were spectacular!
I attended on Friday morning. The day was great, the players were friendly and the Coffs Harbour club and their staff were amazing.
A fantastic 4 days and a record breaking crowd over the 4 days. It gets a bit manic on the last 2 days but thats a testament to the support of all the Fans travelling from all over the world. I come from Ireland every year. Continued success to this great course
Wonderful event well organized. Won't be attending the wine and dine again. Horrible, cheap wine paired with nice food.
Returned again to watch the Ladies play and wasn't disappointed. Great viewing all over the course. Food and beverage experience great. plenty of info available and organization very good. Will return next year and the over 60s FOC entry a nice touch.
Limited viewing areas,
More toilets are the main issue, more food choices, very long queues for both on Sunday.
The rest of the service is excellent, especially the songtao from parking
A souvenir program to buy would be nice and/or a starter sheet with names & holes
Thoroughly enjoyable day.
Thai personnel, as usual, providing a wonderful presentation.
A memorable day!
Everything, as usual for Thai people so beautifully prepared.
Great event
Extremely disappointed with the event.
Absolutely no atmosphere at all.
Sadly we left after 3 hours and didn't return for the final day.
Our holiday was based around watching the golf.
We attended the ladies golf in Evian several years ago and that was fantastic.
Great experience - well organized - serv pro hospitality was first class
We had a good experience, especially seeing the old timers still working at their game. But it was in the mid 80s, and would just get to hot to enjoy at times.
Excellent time at Pebble Beach! It’s our 3rd year going and this time we brought our 1 year old son and it was equally as great! The staff popped our strolled back up when we arrived at pebble. Everyone was kind and helpful and always. Facilities clean and very kid friendly! Will be making this a continual family tradition.
Course, parking, shuttle, grounds ... all are perfect!
Excellent experience
Well organised event
4 Days of fabulous golf. I had a great time !
I had a great experience at the Sony Open. It gets harder to logistically get there every year. There used to be shuttles that came close to our hotel the Hale Koa but no longer. I had to walk probably 1 1/2 mile to catch a bus. The same for my return afterwards. That’s hard when you’re 76 years old and a veteran at that. I wished they came to the Hale Koa to pick up the veterans that would like to go. I come every year but I don’t know how much longer if they make anymore difficult.
Love the venue. However, it would be helpful if there were more free water stations or at least allow us to bring unopened water bottles or bottles to refill.
The current policies for audience engagement at this event are deeply disappointing and counterproductive. Requiring spectators to remain an excessive distance from the golfers undermines the very essence of attending a live golf event—connecting with the game and its players. Moreover, prohibiting small cameras is baffling in today’s world, where capturing memorable moments is part of the experience. Most concerning, however, is the ban on personal water bottles. This policy not only feels inconsiderate but also shows a lack of regard for basic audience comfort and well-being.
I strongly urge the organizers to take notes from the Hoakalei LPGA event, which has set a benchmark for being genuinely audience-friendly. Their thoughtful approach fosters a welcoming and enjoyable experience, treating attendees as valued participants rather than an afterthought.
Unless these restrictive and unfriendly policies are revisited, I cannot, in good faith, recommend anyone purchase tickets to this event. Audience satisfaction is the backbone of any successful event, and failing to address these issues risks alienating loyal fans. It’s time to prioritize your attendees and create an experience worthy of their support.
