Honda Where It Should Be

Hello. I've always thought the Honda Classic should've been the first stop on the Florida portion of the PGA Tour. In the past, Doral (now a WGC event) followed the WGC Match Play championship. Many players found it tough to play in the WGC Match Play, then fly to Florida the next week. Because the Honda has always gotten a weaker field, the big guns get a chance to rest after the Match Play. Of course, for some players, they already got a big rest after losing early.
In fact, there is now somewhat of a lull in the schedule. The Honda is followed by the PODS Championship, formerly the Tampa Chrysler that was played in the fall. This historically has been a lesser event as well. These two events will probably be skipped by the very top players, because Bay Hill and Doral (now Arnold Palmer and WGC CA Championship) follow. Then another lesser event, the Shell Houston Open, followed by the Masters.
I like these lesser events being fitted in this way. The top players are only going to play 20-25 events. This is a reality, so the schedule should reflect it. While every event (including my personal whipping post, the Canadian Open) would like to think they're the best event going, it's just not the way it is. Even tournaments like The Memorial, which used to be a big deal, now are on a lower tier thanks to WGC events.
Congrats PGA Tour on getting this part of the schedule correct.

Regards,
Steve
