2025 Players Championship Begins at TPC Sawgrass

The 2025 Players Championship is set to take place at TPC Sawgrass in Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida, featuring a field of 144 players, including 48 of the top 50 golfers in the world. World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler, who made history as the first back-to-back winner of the event in 2024, aims for a remarkable three-peat, a feat last achieved by Jack Nicklaus in the late 1970s. The tournament will showcase the top three golfers—Scheffler, Rory McIlroy, and Xander Schauffele—teaming up for the opening rounds, promising an exciting competition. McIlroy enters with recent momentum from a win at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am, while Schauffele is looking to secure his first victory at The Players after two runner-up finishes. The challenging TPC Sawgrass course layout, with its lengthened holes and strategic design, will test all players. This year's championship is anticipated to be one of the most competitive in recent history.
