Do you think there is an opportunity for more big names to return for 2016 Zurich now that a World Golf Classic is not the following week? Or will players use the downtime between Masters and Wells Fargo/Players? I know Zurich paid to charter the high profile players last year, but will more come?

April 4-10: Masters Tournament
April 11-17: RBC Heritage
April 18-24: Valero Texas Open
April 25-May 1: Zurich Classic of New Orleans
May 2-8: Wells Fargo Championship
May 9-15: Players Championship

I feel like the field has gotten a little better year by year lately. Of course, some won't come simply because they hate that course.

It definitely should help - a lot of guys will want to play a Pete Dye golf course to prep for the Players.

It's essentially where it was 2 years ago on the schedule... The week before Wells Fargo and 2 weeks before the Players. At least being the week before the Match Play this year, it attracted players like Jason Day and Dustin Johnson. I don't think it will affect the field much.

Anytime you can pull Jason Day, Dustin Johnson, Rickie Fowler, and the like, I'd say it's a successful tourney.
