This weekend, a large portion of golf's best will travel to Florida to compete in this year's Players Championship. This year's winner will enjoy a steep $4.5 million of the $25 million Players Championship purse, which is the second largest among PGA Tour events.
The Players Championship will kick off on Thursday at TPC Sawgrass in Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida. This year, a field of 123 golfers will battle for the biggest title outside of the major championships. This season's Players Championship field consists of 46 of the top 50 golfers in the world, who will be needed to combat TPC Sawgrass's world-famous 137-yard, par-3 iconic island green.
Rory McIlroy (2025 winner) and Scottie Scheffler (winner in 2023 and 2024) have been the latest winners of The Players Championship. This weekend, other golfers will look to push the envelope and become the first new winner since 2022.
Here's everything you need to know to watch all the action from TPC Sawgrass this weekend.
