I´ve found a workaround on superuser.com
(https://superuser.com/questions/1261885/vmware-workstation-14-not-
enough-physical-memory-available-to-start-this-vm-w)

They refer to this Github Commit: https://github.com/mkubecek/vmware-
host-modules/commit/fadedd9c8a4dd23f74da2b448572df95666dfe12#diff-
ae0f1d7e5facf85af1a3622655f3c70f

These steps fixed the problem for me:

cd /tmp
cp /usr/lib/vmware/modules/source/vmmon.tar .
tar xf vmmon.tar
rm vmmon.tar
wget

mv -f hostif.c vmmon-only/linux/hostif.c 
tar cf vmmon.tar vmmon-only
rm -fr vmmon-only
sudo mv -f vmmon.tar /usr/lib/vmware/modules/source/vmmon.tar 
sudo vmware-modconfig --console --install-all

Running 17.10 with VMware-Player-14.0.0-6661328.x86_64.bundle
