Stricker was not at TPC Sawgrass when Rose withdrew but he planned to fly from Naples, Fla., to north Florida in time for the 1:11 p.m. ET tee time.

Stricker, 54, has picked up his PGA Tour schedule this year as he prepares to captain the U.S. Ryder Cup team later this fall. The Players will be his fifth Tour start this year, including a tie for fourth last month at the Waste Management Phoenix Open.
