Rickie Fowler decides to take on the famous 17th at Sawgrass blindfolded and left-handed, and from a hospitality tent!

It's just four days to go until the Players Championship and we're continuing our TPC Sawgrass countdown with another cracker - Fowler's four ways to play the infamous par-three 17th.

Sawgrass' signature hole is a daunting prospect for most with its island green surrounded by water, but Fowler showed no fear as he birdied the hole five times on his way to victory in 2015.

Returning to the course as defending champion last year, Fowler gave himself a new challenge by tackling the hole in a variety of new ways.

After safely finding the green whilst blindfolded and then eventually getting his ball on dry land playing a shot left-handed, Fowler then took on shots from a couple of unorthodox positions.
