Since 1974, there have been 49 editions of the Players Championship, an event that has frequently been dubbed the "fifth major tournament." During that time, a lot of different golfers have won the title—42, to be exact.
Will another unique champion emerge at the 2024 tourney (the 50th iteration of the event)? We'll soon find out, as this year's Players Championship will take place this week at TPC Sawgrass in Ponte Vedra Beach, Fla., beginning on Thursday and wrapping up on Sunday.
Only six golfers are a multiple-time winner at the event. Jack Nicklaus won the Players Championship three times, while Fred Couples, Steve Elkington, Hal Sutton, Davis Love III and Tiger Woods have all won twice.
