While the leaders have yet to tee off on Saturday, there are plenty of notables playing their third round at the 2012 Players Championship at TPC Sawgrass in Florida.

Some players are also making early strides on Saturday. Jhonattan Vegas has a birdie and an eagle in his first two holes and is now tied for 10th at 5-under. Justin Leonard and Carl Pettersson are 3-under through nine holes and both sit at 4-under. Kris Blanks and Martin Kaymer have also moved to 4-under.

Tiger Woods is at par through four holes and Phil Mickelson is at par through three. Both players remain at 2-under and tied for 38th.

The fast greens continue to baffle many of the players, as plenty of two-putts keep popping up on relatively close approaches.
