Welcome to the best sports week of the year.

Brackets for the men and women have been dropped and tournaments officially begin on Thursday morning (the First Four games are Tuesday and Wednesday).

I have created the official MST brackets for both the men and the women. The winners for each will receive a Morning Sports Trivia hat and a shoutout on this newsletter. Two chances to win.

Fill ‘em out!

TODAY’S TRIVIA: At 9am ET this morning, you can catch the 3-hole playoff (and sudden death after if it’s still tied) of The Players Championship between Rory McIlroy (-12) and J.J. Spaun (-12) for the title.

Check out the action on Peacock and the Golf Channel.

In the 51 years of The Players, there have been 5 other playoff instances.

Who was the last winner via a playoff?
