The 1975 Tournament Players Championship was a golf tournament in Texas on the PGA Tour, held August 21–24 at Colonial Country Club in Fort Worth. This was the second Tournament Players Championship;Al Geiberger led wire-to-wire and finished three strokes ahead of runner-up . Defending champion Jack Nicklaus opened with 67 but finished seventeen strokes behind, tied for eighteenth.

The first two Tournament Players Championships were played in late summer; this edition was two weeks after the PGA Championship at Firestone, won by Nicklaus. The next TPC was held just six months later, in south Florida in late February, before the majors.

This was the only Tournament Players Championship held in Texas; the first was in Georgia in 1974 and it relocated to Florida in 1976. Colonial Country Club has hosted an annual event on the PGA Tour since 1946 and was the site of the U.S. Open in 1941.
