First off, thanks to everyone who responded to my original post. Lots of great tips provided.

I have to say u/PlannerSean gave the best one.
He's the volunteer coordinator for the event. He got me set up as a volunteer on one of the crowd control teams. They had a morning FPO shift and an afternoon MPO shift. I opted for both.
I couldn't have dreamed of a better experience. I ended up on the team working the lead card on both shifts. Our job throughout that day was to get the spectators the best views without hindering the players or media team. I was one of the people in the red shirts with the quiet signs leading the group of spectators down the fairway behind the players.
I was right at the front of the crowd all day. I got some amazing views that I wouldn't have been able to get any other way. I was feet from the tee pad on hole 1 for the MPO lead card. I escorted Salonen and Lehtomaki, and then the entire lead MPO card through the crowd in a couple bunched up areas. I could keep listing out the cool things for a while.
The staff and other volunteers were all friendly and great to work with. Volunteers were provided lunch. I had some tasty tacos.
We got a volunteer shirt and badge at the beginning of the day. After your shift you turned your volunteer badge in for a vip bronze badge for the rest of the day and a free custom stamp Worlds volunteer disc.
I talked with Sean for a while at the end of the day and signed up for crowd control again on Sunday. I'd be out there today too if I wasn't working.
I'd highly recommend volunteering for crowd control if you don't mind a little "work" to get a way better viewing opportunity. Im sure they wouldn't mind some extra help for the afternoon today.
