The Players Championship 2027 in Australia: dates, TV and how to watch
By Adam PagePublished Updated
THE PLAYERS Championship is on from Thursday 11 to Sunday 14 March 2027 on the Stadium Course at TPC Sawgrass in Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida. It is the PGA Tour's own flagship event and sits between the Cadillac Championship (4-7 March) and the Arnold Palmer Invitational (18-21 March). The PGA Tour announced the 2027 schedule on 26 August 2026.
THE PLAYERS 2027 Australia time
Sawgrass is on Eastern Standard Time (UTC-5) until the United States moves its clocks forward on the morning of Sunday 14 March. Sydney, Melbourne, Canberra and Hobart are on AEDT (UTC+11), so the gap is 16 hours from Thursday to Saturday and 15 hours on Sunday. Broadcast times have not been published, but they follow the same pattern as every PGA Tour event: a round played on a Thursday or Friday afternoon in Florida is on Friday or Saturday night in Australia, and the final round on Sunday finishes on Monday morning.
Perth is 3 hours behind Sydney at that time of year, Brisbane 1 hour behind, Adelaide and Darwin 30 minutes and 1.5 hours behind.
