The 1984 Tournament Players Championship was a golf tournament in Florida on the PGA Tour, held March 29 to April 1 at TPC Sawgrass in Ponte Vedra Beach, southeast of Jacksonville. It was the eleventh Tournament Players Championship.
Fred Couples, age 24, shot 64 in the second round and finished at 277, one stroke ahead of runner-up Lee Trevino. It was his second win on tour, and he won this championship twelve years later in 1996. Trevino, the champion in 1980 at adjacent Sawgrass Country Club, had missed the cut at the previous two editions, the first two held at the new venue.
Defending champion Hal Sutton finished sixteen strokes back, in a tie for 41st place.
Couples was the youngest champion for twenty years, until Adam Scott won at age 23 in 2004. Sutton had been the youngest, but only for a year; Couples was five months younger at the time of his win.
This was the third Tournament Players Championship held at the TPC at Sawgrass Stadium Course and it remained at 6,857 yards (6,270 m). In response to player concerns, the course had undergone further refinements: greens were flattened and slowed and most of the waste areas were removed.
