The Players Championship always produces one of the best fields of the golf season. This year's edition of of the best non-major events of the season is no different as 48 of the top 50 players in the world will tee it up at TPC Sawgrass starting on Thursday at the same site where golf shut down 12 months ago.
As is often the case when the best in the world descend on a golf tournament, the featured groups are powerhouses: stars on stars on stars grouped together for what should be a compelling finale to a first big quarter of the golf calendar year. Though Brooks Koepka and Matthew Wolff will be absent (not to mention Tiger Woods), we still get groups that include the following trios, which will all demand a ton of attention over the first 36 holes.
- Viktor Hovland, Patrick Cantlay, Justin Thomas
- Sergio Garcia, Webb Simpson, Rory McIlroy
- Patrick Reed, Jon Rahm, Jordan Spieth
- Bryson DeChambeau, Collin Morikawa, Dustin Johnson
From those four threesomes come many of our tournament-opening storylines. And while this even has often produced some quirky winners in the past, it would be surprising right now if the 2021 champion came from outside that group of 12.
Here's a look at all the tee times and pairings for Thursday's Round 1 at TPC Sawgrass. Check out our complete 2021 Players Championship coverage guide to learn how you can watch every round live, and view our expert picks for the tournament.
