For the 2026 Players Championship, coverage is split between ESPN+ , Golf Channel , NBC , and Peacock , with some regional differences.

In the US

  • Streaming (every round, most complete coverage) :
    • ESPN+ streams daily tournament coverage across all four rounds.
  • TV channels :
    • Thursday–Friday : Live coverage on Golf Channel.
* **Saturday–Sunday** : Live coverage on **NBC** , with simulcast/extra coverage on **Peacock**.
  • Cord-cutting options (if you don’t have cable):
    • Live TV bundles that carry NBC + Golf Channel (for example services that market themselves as “+ Live TV” or satellite-style streaming) plus ESPN+ will cover everything.

In the UK & Ireland

  • Sky Sports holds the rights for The Players Championship in 2026.
  • You can watch it:

Other “Players” Things You Might Mean

Because the phrase “the players” is used for a few different things, here are other possibilities and where they are:

“Players” Thing| What It Is| Where To Watch (Now / Recently)
---|---|---
The Players Championship (golf)| PGA Tour flagship event at TPC Sawgrass, March 12–15, 2026. 357| US: ESPN+, Golf Channel, NBC, Peacock; UK: Sky Sports. 357
Netflix film “Players” (rom-com)| Dating/rom-com heist-style movie, trailer released via Netflix. 9| Streaming on Netflix (global, subject to region). 9
Film “The Players” (various regions)| Different movies with that title; availability varies by country. 110| Check region on JustWatch-type services; often on major platforms like Paramount+, Netflix, or others. 110

If you meant the Netflix movie “Players” or a specific movie called “The Players” , tell me which country you’re in and I can narrow it down further based on regional rights.

“If you only catch one thing from this: in the US, grab ESPN+ for all-round coverage and NBC/Peacock for the weekend; in the UK, it’s on Sky Sports.”

TL;DR:

  • Golf tournament (The Players Championship 2026) → ESPN+ + Golf Channel + NBC/Peacock (US), Sky Sports (UK).
  • Netflix rom-com “Players” → on Netflix.
  • Any other “The Players” movie → depends on your country; check big streamers, often findable via guide sites.
