Henni Goya gets the PGA Tour stars to take on TPC Sawgrass' 17th hole using either a left-handed club or a putter!

Patrick Reed and Marc Leishman were among the stars to take on the 17th hole challenge at TPC Sawgrass ahead of the Players Championship.

With golf's unofficial fifth major home to one of the most iconic par-threes in golf, we got the PGA Tour stars to tackle the 137-yard Stadium Hole in a unique way.

The hole already offers players plenty to think about, with water surrounding the island green, but how would the players cope when face when taking on the hole with the opposite hand?

We gave the players the option of either using a left-handed club or a putter to try and land the ball on the green, with some having more success than others!
