The 2021 Princess Auto Players' Championship was held April 20–25, 2021 at the Markin MacPhail Centre at Canada Olympic Park in Calgary, Alberta.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic in Canada, it was announced that both the Players' Championship and the Champions Cup Grand Slam of Curling events would still be held in the 2020–21 curling season but would move to a centralized "bubble" (similar to that of the NHL as in Edmonton) at Canada Olympic Park alongside Curling Canada's national championships. All events will be held behind closed doors with no spectators.[2]
In the men's final, Team Bruce Mouat of Scotland won their second consecutive slam in the bubble, defeating Team Brad Gushue of St. John's 6–5. Team Mouat won the 2021 Champions Cup just six days prior to their win at the Players' Championship.
In the women's final, Team Kerri Einarson of Gimli topped Team Rachel Homan of Ottawa 5–2 to win their second consecutive Players' Championship title.
