The 2020 Players Championship was the 47th edition of The Players Championship, scheduled for March 12–15 at TPC Sawgrass in Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida. It was canceled by the PGA Tour prior to the second round in response to the COVID-19 pandemic; the tour had earlier announced that the tournament would proceed behind closed doors for the remaining three days.
Hideki Matsuyama held a two stroke lead after the first round having equaled the course record of 63, nine under par.[1] Defending champion Rory McIlroy was at even par (72), tied for 83rd place.[2] Half of the $15 million purse was split equally among the 144 competing players, at $52,000 each.
The event was not included in the revised schedule announced in early April 2020.[3]
