2022 NBA Draft Lottery: Who is representing each team?
Everyone awaiting the Tiger Woods Thursday tee time for the PGA Championship and golf fans were rewarded with a monster grouping for Rounds 1 and 2.
Tiger Woods has reappeared after his raucous return to golf at The Masters and, go figure, his next stop is the 2022 PGA Championship at Southern Hills, a place where he won back in 2007.
Any time that Woods is teeing it up at this stage of his career and after his injuries suffered in the horrific car accident in early 2021, the fanfare is going to be out of control. As such, everyone is wanting to see every shot that arguably the greatest golfer of all time is going to hit, especially at a major championship.
On Tuesday, we got the first look at when we’ll see Woods and, even better, found out that he’ll be grouped with some absolute studs to begin the PGA Championship.
PGA Championship: Tiger Woods Thursday tee time
In an absolutely monstrous group, the PGA of America announced on Tuesday that Tiger Woods will be grouped with Rory McIlroy and Jordan Spieth to tee off on No. 10 at 9:11 a.m. ET on Thursday.
That group will take the course on the first hole at 2:36 p.m. ET
What an incredible group with 22 major championship wins between the threesome. If you want to know where the fans on-site at Southern Hills will be on Thursday and Friday, the safe bet is with three of the most popular golfers in the world.
