PGA Championship 2023: UK tee times and groups in full including Rory McIlroy and Jon Rahm for first round

Rory McIlroy will play his opening two rounds of the PGA Championship alongside defending champion Justin Thomas and two-time major winner Collin Morikawa.

The second major of the season gets underway at Oak Hill this afternoon, with McIlroy looking to bounce back from his disastrous missed cut at the Masters last month and mount a serious bid at ending his nine-year major drought.

Jon Rahm, world number one and winner at Augusta, will have completed three legs of the career Grand Slam should he lift the Wanamaker Trophy on Sunday evening, and he gets his tournament up and running at 1:33pm BST alongside Matt Fitzpatrick and Cameron Smith.

Brooks Koepka, one of the LIV golfers who impressed at the Masters, is a two-time PGA Championship winner and has been grouped with Scottie Scheffler and Gary Woodland for Thursday and Friday. Scheffler’s worst finish in nine strokeplay events this year is a tie for 12th.
