PGA Championship: Tee times, groupings for Rounds 1-2PGA Championship: Tee times, groupings for Rounds 1-2

NOTE: Full tee times, groupings at bottom The tee times are out for the year’s first major. There’s plenty of star power in the featured groups for Thursday’s first round at TPC Harding Park. This will be the first major held at San Francisco’s municipal gem, and while there will not be any spectators on site, it is setting up to be a memorable week for the first major in more than a year. Storylines are aplenty. Can Justin Thomas win a second PGA after last week’s win in the World Golf Championships-FedEx St. Jude Invitational? Is Tiger Woods capable of a 16th major title and record-setting 83rd PGA TOUR victory? Can Jordan Spieth complete the career Grand Slam? Will Jon Rahm win after reaching No. 1 in the world? How will Bryson DeChambeau’s big-bombing style of play fare in a major? And can Webb Simpson win another major across Lake Merced from the site of his 2012 U.S. Open triumph? Not only is this the season’s first major, but with only two weeks remaining in the regular season, this is an important week before the start of the FedExCup Playoffs. Here’s a look at the groups to watch, as well as the full-field tee times (Note: All times Pacific; FedExCup ranking in parentheses): 8:11 a.m. PT: Gary Woodland (30)-Shane Lowry (130)-Brooks Koepka (96) This group comprises the winners of the past three majors. Koepka is going for the PGA three-peat after his runner-up at last week’s World Golf Championships-FedEx St. Jude Invitational. Woodland won last year’s U.S. Open just down the California coast in Pebble Beach. He was runner-up in the 2015 World Golf Championships-Dell Technologies Match Play at Harding Park. And Lowry is the last man to win a major, with his emotional win in The Open Championship. 8:22 a.m. PT: Jordan Spieth (90)-Dustin Johnson (25)-Justin Rose (135) Two former FedExCup champions, Spieth and Rose, are in this group. All three players are former World No. 1s, as well. It’s been three years since Spieth’s last win, but he could still complete the Career Grand Slam this week. All three are former U.S. Open champions, as well. 8:33 a.m. PT: Justin Thomas (1)-Tiger Woods (48)-Rory McIlroy (5) A combined five FedExCups are in this group. McIlroy and Woods are the only two-time winners of the FedExCup and Thomas is in good position to join them. He took a large lead in this season’s standings with his win at the World Golf Championships-FedEx St. Jude Invitational. Woods is seeking his record-setting 83rd PGA TOUR victory. Woods and McIlroy have already hoisted trophies at Harding Park. Woods won the 2005 WGC-American Express Championship here, while McIlroy claimed the 2015 WGC-Dell Technologies Match Play. 1:47 p.m. PT: Rickie Fowler (79)-Bryson DeChambeau (4)-Adam Scott (35) DeChambeau’s revamped game takes on a major for the first time. He has a win and seven other top-10s this season. Fowler is trying to win his first Grand Slam event. Scott is making his first start since the season resumed. He won early this year at the Genesis Invitational down in Southern California. 1:58 p.m. PT: Jon Rahm (10)-Phil Mickelson (62)-Sergio Garcia (132) Jon Rahm is the youngest player in this group, but he’s also the only one to hold the top spot in the Official World Golf Ranking. He lost that mantle after Thomas’ win at the WGC-FedEx St. Jude Invitational, but he still is one of the favorites. Rahm won recently at the Memorial Tournament presented by Nationwide. He’ll be in a comfortable group. Garcia is his Spanish countryman, while Mickelson is a fellow Arizona State alum. Mickelson is coming off a runner-up finish at the WGC-FedEx St. Jude Invitational, his best showing of the year. Garcia is third in Strokes Gained: Off-the-Tee this season, which will be handy at Harding Park. Here are the tee times and groupings for Rounds 1-2 of the PGA Championship at TPC Harding Park.

Horses for Courses: PGA ChampionshipHorses for Courses: PGA Championship

August and Everything After A bizarre 2020 continues as the PGA Championship will be the new lead-off major championship this week at TPC Harding Park in San Francisco. Moved to May on a permanent basis last year, the PGA Championship this season will be the first of three majors to take place in the next three months as COVID-19 has rearranged the entire 2020 calendar. Believe it or not, after the Wyndham Championships next week, it’s on to the FedExCup Playoffs so there’s plenty on the line this week besides the Wannamaker trophy. The purse of $11 million ($1.98 winner) and the FedExCup points (600 winner) will help clear up the picture for the rest of the month. For the first time since 1998 (Sahalee, outside Seattle) the PGA Championship will be played west of the Rocky Mountains. The event returns to California for the first time since Riviera in 1995 and for just the fifth time overall. Celebrating year 95, TPC Harding Park will host its first major championship and join the small list of municipal courses to enjoy this honor but is no stranger to holding large events. After a massive restoration project involving the City and eventually the TOUR, the 2005 World Golf Championships American Express reintroduced this classic layout to the modern game. Following Tiger Woods’ playoff victory over John Daly in 2005, Woods and his American teammates won the 2009 Presidents Cup on this same track. The world would return again in 2015 after new Bentgrass greens were installed for the WGC Cadillac Match Play. The trophy was lifted by Rory McIlroy as he defeated Gary Woodland 4 & 2 in the final. RELATED: Power Rankings | Expert Picks TPC Harding Park was routed and designed by Willie Watson and Sam Whiting, the same pair who put together Olympic Club, site of five U.S. Opens, just across Lake Merced. The Par-70 will stretch 7,234 yards and will feature seven, Par-4 holes playing 460 yards or longer, a Par-5 hole over 600 and a Par-3 250 plus. Tight, Cypress tree-lined fairways will look great on television but the doglegs provided will be difficult to navigate. Over three inches of Bent/Poa/Fescue rough will swallow up errant tee balls but larger than average greens (7,000 square feet) will give glimmers of hope to recovery shots. The good news the green complexes are big targets. Once onboard the slightly sloping 007 Tyee Bentgrass should be prepped to run lightning quick so the premium putters will have a chance to shine this week. Major championship golf should require all 14 clubs plus the six inches between the ears and this week won’t be any different. The last five holes will have Lake Merced on the left so there’s only one bailout. Located just half of a mile from the Pacific Ocean sea breeze, fog and swirling winds will also factor into the decision making process this week. Temperatures can range from the high 40s in the morning to the low 70s in the afternoon but it looks like rain will stay away. Brooks Koepka looks to become the only player in the stroke-play era (1958 and on) to win for the third consecutive year. He leads a field of 156 professionals, including 20 Club Professionals and 92 of the top 100 players in the world. 2015 WGC-Cadillac Match Play (Top finishers below; 43 of 64 in the field this week) 1 *Rory McIlroy 2 *Gary Woodland 3 *Danny Willett 4 *Jim Furyk 5 *Tommy Fleetwood 5 *Louis Oosthuizen 5 *Paul Casey 9 *Hideki Matsuyama 9 *Charl Schwartzel 9 *Rickie Fowler 9 *Gary Woodland 2009 Presidents Cup Participants USA Tiger Woods Phil Mickelson Steve Stricker Zach Johnson Jim Furyk Lucas Glover Internationals Adam Scott Ryo Ishikawa 2005 WGC-American Express Participants 1 *Tiger Woods 3 *Henrik Stenson 3 *Sergio Garcia 6 Graeme McDowell 11 Davis Love III 15 *Jim Furyk 18 *Ian Poulter 18 *Charl Schwartzel 29 *Phil Mickelson 29 *Adam Scott 32 Vaughn Taylor 43 *Zach Johnson 2019 Recap Brooks Koepka (-16) Started his defense opening with 63, a PGA record, and new course record at Bethpage Black. … Backed it up with 65 in Round 2 to set the major championship 36-hole scoring record. … Led by seven, another PGA record, after 54 holes. … Led the field in Strokes Gained: Tee to Green and Approach the Green. … Joined Tiger Woods as the only champion to defend in the stroke play era (1958 to present). … Became the first person since Hal Sutton in 1983 to go wire-to-wire (no ties).

His record at Pebble Beach and Torrey Pines suggests he doesn’t mind a bit of California coastal golf. It will be interesting to hear what his back/body has to say this week after playing twice in six months. Brooks Koepka: The last 10 majors he’s entered he’s won four, finished second twice, a T4 and a T6. Burst in to life last week in Memphis as he nearly defended his WGC title at TPC Southwind. Rory McIlroy: His history is getting historical in the major championships since he hasn’t picked one off since the PGA Championship at Valhalla in 2014. The following spring he won the WGC Match Play on this track so he’ll have a serious point of reference this week. The final four from 2015 will have the most tournament reps at TPC Harding Park. Gary Woodland: Speaking of, most will remember that he picked up the U.S. Open down Highway 1 last summer at Pebble Beach. Webb Simpson: Last time San Francisco proper hosted a major it was the 2012 U.S. Open at Olympic Club. Simpson closed with 68 to pick up his first, and to this point only, major championship. Shane Lowry: The Northern Irishman won’t have any problems in cool, damp conditions just like he didn’t at Royal Portrush last summer in winning The Open Championship.
