The second round of the 2026 Players Championship is set to begin on Friday, March 13, at TPC Sawgrass’ Stadium Course located in Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida. Fans can find complete tee times for the day’s events below.
Featured Players in Round 2
Notable among the participants is Justin Thomas, a two-time PGA champion. After undergoing back surgery, he missed a significant part of the 2026 PGA Tour season. His return at last week’s Arnold Palmer Invitational didn’t go as planned; he failed to make the cut after consecutive 79s. However, his performance at TPC Sawgrass has shown promise.
On Thursday, Thomas had an impressive start, recording birdies on his first three holes, reaching three under par early in the round. He concluded the day with a score of 68, placing him at four under, tied for second. His success sets an optimistic stage for Friday’s second round.

Justin Thomas will alter his starting position for the second round. After beginning on the 10th tee, he will kick off his Friday round from the 1st tee at 1:42 p.m. ET. He will be joined by fellow competitors Scottie Scheffler and Tommy Fleetwood.
