On the tee: Ginn sur Mer Classic

In its second year, the Ginn sur Mer Classic moves to a new venue on Florida's east coast. Last year, the inaugural event was hosted by a Ginn Resorts property in Port St. Lucie. This year, the action will take place at Ginn Hammock Beach, just south of St. Augustine, on a newly designed course by Tom Watson's firm. The tournament is the second-to-last opportunity for players looking to secure playing privileges for 2009. A good segment of this week's 127-man field is on the burner.
