Riviera, or “Riv” for short, has a history of exciting finishes. Anticipation of a great event is even higher this year to due to a star-studded field that for the first time includes Rory McIlroy. World No. 1 Jordan Spieth, Sergio Garcia, Justin Rose, Dustin Joshnson, Paul Casey, Adam Scott, Gary Woodland and Bubba Watson are also in the field, along with last year’s winner James Hahn. A year ago, Hahn beat D. Johnson and Casey in a sudden-death playoff to earn his first PGA Tour victory.

Other notables include 2016 PGA Tour winners Jason Dufner, Fabian Gomez, Hideki Matsuyama, and AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am winner Vaughn Taylor.

On Monday at Rvieria, however, the spotlight was on amateurs, not the pros. For the second year, the Northern Trust Open held its Collegiate Showcase, in which 14 top college players competed for a spot in the field. In addition, two university alumni was paired with a PGA Tour professional as they competed for a $50,000 donation to their university.

The college players competing were Arizona’s Kolton Lapa (playing with Ricky Barnes), Arizona State’s Max Rotluff (playing with Paul Casey), Baylor’s Nick Thornton (playing with Jimmy Walker) Georgia’s Lee McCoy (playing with Hudson Swafford) Illinois’ Charlie Danielson (playing with Scott Langley), Kentucky’s Chip McDaniel (playing with J.B. Holmes) Northwestern’s Dylan Wu (playing with Luke Donald), Texas’ Beau Hossler (playing with Jordan Spieth) Texas A&M’s Adria Arnaus (playing with Bronson Burgoon) UCLA’s Johnathan Garrick (playing with Kevin Chappell) UNLV’s Taylor Montgomery (playing with Charlie Hoffman), USC’s Bobby Gojuangco (playing with Jamie Lovemark), Wake Forest’s Will Zalatoris (playing with Kyle Reifers) and Washington’s Johnathan Sanders (playing with Nick Taylor).

GolfWRX was on site for the golf business’s annual winter rite: the PGA Merchandise Show.

While the weather was less than cooperative for demo day, there were no such difficulties inside the Orange County Convention Center. This isn’t to say there weren’t significant figurative headwinds influencing this year’s Show, but those are widely discussed elsewhere. Our duty here was merely to document, and that is what we did to the tune of more than 1,500 photos, below.

Enjoy!
