THE PLAYERS Championship will return to Ponte Vedra from March 10-15, bringing together top golfers for six days of competition at the Stadium Course at TPC Sawgrass. The tournament will feature a field of 120 players, including defending champion Rory McIlroy, two-time winner Scottie Scheffler, Keegan Bradley, and Brooks Koepka. McIlroy secured his 28th PGA TOUR title in 2025 and became the eighth player to win multiple PLAYERS Championships.
The Stadium Course at TPC Sawgrass is recognized as the world’s first true stadium course and was designed by Pete Dye. It is known for its challenging Island Green on the 17th hole and has hosted winners such as Fred Couples, Steve Elkington, Phil Mickelson, Tiger Woods, and Rory McIlroy. Jack Nicklaus remains the only three-time winner of THE PLAYERS.
The venue can accommodate up to 36,000 fans and offers features aimed at enhancing the spectator experience, including covered bleachers with views of key holes. Exclusive hospitality options are available, such as the Intracoastal Club located between holes 12 and 13. This club provides open-air seating, numerous televisions, and a selection of food and beverages.
A new addition this year is Iron & Wedge, a luxury steakhouse dining venue available exclusively to members of THE PLAYERS Club. Members can dine while overlooking the 18th green and choose from a menu that includes USDA Prime Angus steaks, American Wagyu steaks, seafood dishes like seared sea bass and tuna tartare, lobster mac and cheese, truffle parmesan pommes frites, and jumbo shrimp cocktails.
THE PLAYERS continues to offer complimentary and discounted tickets for active-duty military personnel as well as retired service members. The Patriots’ Outpost lounge near the Number 16 tee is reserved for military guests. On Tuesday, March 10, Ludacris will perform at the Military Appreciation Concert held on the 17th Island Green Hole.
