Cameron Young is your Players champion for the next year, after he won the biggest tournament of his PGA Tour career with pre-tournament odds of +3000, representing an implied win probability of 3.23%.

Still wondering if The Players if the fifth major? Well, the fact we'll need to wait roughly another 6-8 months for the 2027 Players Championship odds should help settle that. Odds for next year's majors come out in the minutes after a championship is won.


⭐ The Players Championship odds

We're not likely to have 2027 Players Championship odds until early December. Stay tuned to this page once they're available.

I expect Scottie Scheffler and Rory McIlroy to open as the betting favorites. Cameron Young, Matthew Fitzpatrick, and Xander Schauffele are also likely to be near the top of the oddsboard, based on this year's leaderboard from TPC Sawgrass.

ℹ️ TPC Sawgrass course info

Consider Pete Dye's most famous design, TPC Sawgrass is said to not favor a specific brand of golf. The one thing that regularly prevails: pedigree and star power. The Players Championship boasts the strongest field in golf. It took at least one step back toward that being true with Brooks Koepka in the 2026 field upon his return to the PGA Tour this season.

The intricate Bermuda greens run fast with challenging slopes often spilling toward the many water hazards. Fairways demand golfers to hit specific landing areas - or risk troublesome rough or further water issues.

The last 10 winning scores have ranged from -10 to -20.
