With Mother Nature exiting stage left for Round 2, players should be able to zip through their 18 holes early Friday with some eyeing contention and others attempting to avoid the 36-hole cutline.<\/p>\n<p>One man who will be hoping to maintain his place on the leaderboard is Sahith Theegala, who was the last of those tied for the lead at 5 under to complete his round. Theegala will experience a quick turnaround alongside Rickie Fowler and Jordan Spieth as the trio tees off at 8:40 a.m. ET on the back nine.<\/p>\n<p>An interesting name to keep an eye on Friday is Xander Schauffele. The two-time major champion is looking to find that 2024 form once again and could be a factor on the weekend. He has yet to win The Players Championship, with a pair of T-2s in his locker, but a victory at TPC Sawgrass would be a nice addition to a growing resume. He has just one T-10 so far this season and started off in decent shape with a 3-under 69 on Thursday.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, in the afternoon, as TPC Sawgrass continues to dry out from the Thursday rains, world No. 1 Scottie Scheffler will attempt to find his footing. The two-time Players Championship winner had the highest score in his threesome (even par) along with Tommy Fleetwood&#8217;s 69 and Justin Thomas&#8217; 68. This group will play at 1:42 p.m. off the first hole.<\/p>\n<p>Take a look at the complete list of tee times for Round 2 at TPC Sawgrass below, check out a complete\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbssports.com\/golf\/news\/players-championship-2026-tv-schedule-coverage-where-to-watch-live\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">2026 Players Championship TV schedule and coverage guide<\/a>\u00a0and be sure to follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbssports.com\/golf\/news\/players-championship-2026-leaderboard-live-updates-scores-coverage-round-2\/live\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">live updates from The Players leaderboard<\/a> as play continues Friday.<\/p>\n<p>2026 Players Championship: Rounds 2 tee times, pairings<\/p>\n<p>All times Eastern<\/p>\n<p><strong>No. 1<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>7:40 a.m. \u2014 Tom Hoge, Denny McCarthy, Nicolai Hojgaard<\/li>\n<li>7:52 a.m. \u2014 Patrick Rodgers, Kevin Roy, Marco Penge<\/li>\n<li>8:04 a.m. \u2014 Chad Ramey, Alex Smalley, Pierceson Coody<\/li>\n<li>8:16 a.m. \u2014 Kurt Kitayama, Harry Hall, Stephan Jaeger<\/li>\n<li>8:28 a.m. \u2014 Keegan Bradley, David Ford, Chris Kirk<\/li>\n<li>8:40 a.m. \u2014 Andrew Novak, Nick Taylor, Wyndham Clark<\/li>\n<li>8:52 a.m. \u2014 Steven Fisk, William Mouw, Joe Highsmith<\/li>\n<li>9:04 a.m. \u2014 Cameron Young, Davis Thompson, Sam Burns<\/li>\n<li>9:16 a.m. \u2014 Nico Echavarria, Jason Day, Corey Conners<\/li>\n<li>9:28 a.m. \u2014 Matthieu Pavon, S.H.
