The PGA Tour is buzzing this week as the best players in the league come together at TPC Sawgrass for the 2024 Players Championship. After a successful event last week at the Arnold Palmer Invitational, the Players Championship is now in full swing, just a month before the highly anticipated 2024 Masters.
Scottie Scheffler, fresh off a win at the Arnold Palmer Invitational and the reigning Players champion, is living up to his status as the favorite. He is in a prime position after Round 1. Another standout performance came from Rory McIlroy, who shares the lead after the first 18 holes and even set a TPC Sawgrass record with 10 birdies in his first round.
While the tournament boasts a stellar lineup of players, with the exception of Jon Rahm and defending champion Cameron Smith, one notable absence is Tiger Woods. Woods opted not to participate in The Players this year, despite it being the final year of his automatic eligibility. With Woods aiming to play once a month in 2024, his decision to skip this event comes as a surprise, especially after his recent withdrawal from the Genesis Invitational due to illness.
For golf enthusiasts, watching The Players live is a dream come true. Whether you're at home or in the office, the excitement of the tournament is palpable. CBS Sports is dedicated to providing extensive coverage throughout the week, ensuring fans don't miss a moment of the action.
