The Players Championship 2025 is on the horizon as the PGA Tour continues its Florida Swing. The prestigious event at TPC Sawgrass in Ponte Vedra Beach kicks off on March 13, 2025. It is widely regarded as the "fifth major" as well.
The Players was first played in 1974. Deane Beman, the PGA Tour Commissioner back then, wanted a prestigious major-like event, but controlled fully by the Tour. As of 2025, this competition has grown into one of the most awaited events for a professional on the golf calendar. The Players Championship has become a big deal for every professional golfer.
The tournament comes with a star-studded field. Golfers aim for the massive prize pool of $25 million, and the winner takes home $4.5 million. The iconic golf course is one of the most challenging factors in The Players Championship. TPC Sawgrass, designed by Pete Dye, features the legendary 17th-hole island green where golfers struggle to move past.

The Masters, The Open, U.S. Open and the PGA Championship feature a lot of amateur golfers in the field. However, that's not the case for The Players Championship. This competition is only for the top-ranked names in the PGA Tours who receive invitations for the event. Although it will probably never be official, the Players' strongest field will keep it being the unofficial fifth golf major.
Golf legend Jack Nicklaus won this event three times, including the inaugural one. The Players Championship has been won by big names like Rory McIlroy, Tiger Woods, Greg Norman, and Phil Mickelson as well. The current No.1 Scottie Scheffler has also won the Players twice till now.
If he manages to secure the title this year, Scheffler will be able to match the record with Nicklaus. Last year, he won The Players Championship for the second consecutive time. Scheffler carded a bogey-free 8-under 64 in the concluding round, finishing with a total 20-under 268.
