Toby Keith to perform at this year’s Players Championship
The Players Championship announced their full slate of military appreciation activities and programs for the 2016 event last week, including a performance by Toby Keith on Tues., May 10, during Military Appreciation Day. New in 2016, the Military Appreciation Day Ceremony (6 p.m.) and Concert (6:30 p.m.) will be held on the 17th hole – instead of the traditional location on the back of the clubhouse lawn.
Keith’s performance will cap off the Military Appreciation Day Ceremony, which will include pageantry by military personnel, a flyover by the 125th Fighter Wing, Florida Air National Guard, and a National Anthem performance by Byron Rowe (United States Navy-Retired). Speakers at the Military Appreciation ceremony will be General Mark Welsh, Chief of Staff, United States Air Force and member of the Joint Chiefs of Staff; PGA Tour Commissioner Tim Finchem; and a Tour player.
Keith’s tours have drawn more than 1 million fans each year for the last decade. The Military Appreciation Day Ceremony and Concert is free to any Tuesday ticket holder; a Tuesday Stadium Pass starts $20.
