A year on from becoming the first player to defend The Players Championship title, world No. 1 Scottie Scheffler tees off at Florida’s TPC Sawgrass on Thursday looking to put further distance between himself and his peers in golf’s history books.

Scheffler is a combined 37-under-par the last two years at TPC Sawgrass, 12 shots better than any other player.

Scheffler has yet to enter the winner's circle this season, but Rory McIlroy has already hoisted a trophy. The world No. 2 is listed closely behind Scheffler at 7-1 as the two have combined to win three of the last the five Players with McIlroy's title coming in 2019.
