Scottie Scheffler Aims for Historic Third Straight Players Championship Win

The world’s top-ranked golfer returns to TPC Sawgrass after overcoming offseason surgery and a slower start to 2025.

Scottie Scheffler is attempting to become the first golfer to win The Players Championship three consecutive times, following back-to-back victories in 2023 and 2024.
Scheffler’s 2025 season began slowly after recovering from hand surgery caused by a holiday injury, which sidelined him until February.
The Players Championship, known for its challenging TPC Sawgrass course and elite field, features all top 10 golfers in the world rankings this year.
Scheffler will play the first two rounds alongside Rory McIlroy and Xander Schauffele, the No. 2 and No. 3 ranked players, respectively.
PGA Tour commissioner Jay Monahan provided a positive update on the potential merger with LIV Golf during a pre-tournament press conference.
