WHAT’S NEW IN 2024
THE PLAYERS' 50th Anniversary
This year, THE PLAYERS will celebrate its 50th Anniversary and will have special merchandise and activations to celebrate the milestone with the community.
The Intracoastal Club
The Intracoastal Club will provide fans with an exciting new destination to relax and refuel while enjoying the tournament. This venue offers the perfect blend of sophistication and sport with abundant TVs, bar-style seating and the ability to purchase upscale food and beverage, including beer, wine and signature co*cktails. Situated between Holes 12 and 13, this open-air venue provides incredible views of two of the most thrilling holes on the course.
Renovations on Hole #18
It's a subtle change, but one that is designed to bolster the already raucous atmosphere of the finishing stretch at TPC Sawgrass. A simple reshaping of the mounding on Hole #18 has opened up the sight lines to allow PLAYERS’ future spectators to see every shot.
Top Dawg Tavern
There’s a new top dawg in town—or THE PLAYERS food court. Top Dawg, located in Bartram Park, will be bringing your gameday favorites to TPC Sawgrass.
New Executive Director
Lee Smith has taken the helm as Executive Director for the 2024 tournament. Smith brings with him a wealth of industry experience having spent over 20 years with the PGA TOUR and as a PGA of America instructor.

Fan Code of Conduct
Etiquette and respect for fellow competitors is one of the first things golfers learn when playing the sport. It's ingrained in the competition. Players often applaud their competitors on the golf course, call penalties on themselves, move out of their line of site to remain still and silent when other players are hitting, etc. As such, we hope that the fans at THE PLAYERS Championship will show their pride at hosting this event and their community by applying the same standards to how they act as spectators.
