Aces, splashes and seagulls: Magic moments on 17 at Sawgrass

 A view of the 17th green during the third round of The TPC Sawgrass

The 17th hole at TPC Sawgrass has produced a remarkable number of memorable moments since the Stadium Course first hosted the Players Championship in 1982.

The highs include holes-in-one for Paul Azinger and Miguel Angel Jimenez, while Fred Couples made a sensational par from the tee box in 1999 after landing his first effort in the drink.

There's also Tiger Woods making an incredible birdie putt from long distance, and Martin Kaymer getting one hand on the trophy with a superb putt for a clutch par last year.

But the number of highs have more than been matched by the lows, with the likes of Bob Tway, Sean O'Hair and Sergio Garcia all coming to grief in spectacular style.

And then there's the seagull who took a dislike to Steve Lowery finding the green and decided his ball would be better off at the bottom of the lake.
