The 1974 Tournament Players Championship was a golf tournament in Georgia on the PGA Tour, held August 29 to September 2 at Atlanta Country Club in Marietta, a suburb northwest of Atlanta. This was the first Tournament Players Championship, and Jack Nicklaus won the first of his three TPC titles, two strokes ahead of runner-up J. C. Snead, the 54-hole leader.

The final round on Sunday was interrupted several times by weather and twelve players completed their rounds on Monday morning, Labor Day.

The year's concluding major, the PGA Championship, was played three weeks earlier in North Carolina and won by Lee Trevino, a stroke ahead of Nicklaus. Trevino opened with 69 at the TPC but finished twelve shots back, in eighteenth place.

This was the only Tournament Players Championship held in Georgia; it went to Texas in 1975 and relocated to Florida in 1976. Except for this year, the Atlanta Country Club hosted the Atlanta Classic on the PGA Tour from 1967 through 1996.
