PGA TOUR: Honda Classic on the Champion Course at PGA National Golf Club in Palm Beach Gardens, Fla., Thursday through Sunday.

TV: Thursday and Friday, 3-6 p.m. EST, on the Golf Channel; Saturday and Sunday, 1-3 p.m. EST on the Golf Channel and 3-6 p.m. EST on NBC.

LAST YEAR: Michael Thompson capped his first PGA Tour victory by getting up and down from a greenside bunker for a closing birdie to shoot 1-under-par 69 in cold, windy weather and beat Geoff Ogilvy of Australia by two strokes. Thompson, coming off two missed cuts in his previous three outings, holed a 50-foot eagle putt on the third hole while building a four-stroke lead. He held off Ogilvy, the 2006 U.S. Open champion, who made birdies on two of the last three holes and also shot 69. Luke Guthrie, who was tied with Thompson for the 54-hole lead, dropped back with a bogey on the second hole en route to a final-round 73 and wound up third, four shots behind.

CHAMPIONS TOUR: Toshiba Classic at Newport Beach Country Club in Newport Beach, Calif., March 14-16.

TV: Friday, 6:30-9 p.m. EST; Saturday and Sunday, 6:30-9:30 p.m. EST, on the Golf Channel each day.

LAST YEAR: David Frost of South Africa opened with an 8-under-par 63 and led virtually all the way in claiming a five-stroke victory over Fred Couples. Frost, who played the weekend in 66-65, earned his fourth victory on the Champions Tour, adding the Regions Tradition later in the year, after winning 10 times on the PGA Tour. Couples birdied the first hole of the final round to pull even with Frost, who regained control with birdies on the next two holes and finished things off with Couples still in contention by carding four birdies on the last five holes.

LPGA TOUR: HSBC Women's Champions on the Serapong Course at Sentosa Golf Club in Singapore.

TV: Wednesday through Saturday (in the United States), 10:30 p.m.-2:30 a.m. EST, on the Golf Channel each day.

LAST YEAR: Stacy Lewis overcame two bogeys on the back nine, making a short putt for par on the final hole to complete a 1-under-par 71 that gave her a one-stroke victory over Na Yeon Choi of South Korea. Lewis, who claimed her sixth victory on the LPGA Tour, took the lead for good on the par-5 seventh hole when she hit her approach shot from 200 yards to within five inches to make an eagle. Choi, who closed with a 72, was runner-up in the tournament for the second consecutive year after losing to Angela Stanford in playoff in 2011. Paula Creamer, hampered by a shoulder injury from a car accident a week earlier in Thailand, held a share of the lead early in the final round and finished third after a 71.
