It’s time for the fifth major.
The Players Championship at TPC Sawgrass kicks off Thursday from Ponta Vedra Beach, Florida. Defending champion Scottie Scheffler, who last week won the Arnold Palmer Invitational for the second time in three years, highlights the field, but all of the top players on the PGA Tour are in the field, including past winners Rory McIlroy, Justin Thomas and more.
The Players Stadium Course ranks No. 1 in Florida on Golfweek’s Best list of public-access layouts in each state. It also ranks No. 23 on Golfweek’s Best list of modern courses in the U.S., and it ranks No. 10 among all resort courses in the U.S.
The purse at the Players is $25 million with $4.5 million going to the winner. The winner will also receive 750 FedEx Cup points.
