Rory McIlroy continues to sit on the front page of the leaderboard, but TPC Sawgrass still finds ways to put its claws into him at The PLAYERS Championship.

It looked like the cut was going to fall right at one-under at the Players Championship for most of Friday, but there was a chance later in the day that two under was going to be the magic number. Ultimately it held at one and 72 players made the cut after taking 143 shots in two days at TPC Sawgrass.

The stars are out bright and early Thursday morning for the first round of the 2025 Players Championship. Featuring a full field of 144 players, the PGA Tour's flagship event has many of those big names playing alongside one another across the first two days at TPC Sawgrass.
