The biggest of those, arguably, is the grouping of Tiger Woods, Rory McIlroy and Justin Thomas. The three have combined for seven PGA Championships and 18 top-10 finishes in the 2019-20 season (including five wins). Woods won a major last season at The Masters and is looking to win his fifth PGA Championship. McIlroy is looking for his third overall, while Thomas looks for his second (and fourth win of the season). But they’re not the only huge group playing this week.
The grouping of Brooks Koepka (PGA Championship), Gary Woodland (U.S. Open) and Shane Lowry (British Open) represent winners of three of the last four majors. Other notable groupsings include Dustin Johnson, Jordan Spieth and Justin Rose, all former World No. 1s; Spieth in particular will look to complete the major Grand Slam with a win at TPC Harding Park. The grouping of Bryson DeChambeau, Ricky Fowler and Adam Scott will also be interesting to watch as well, considering this is DeChambeau’s first major since revamping his game.
Storylines abound with each group, to be sure. Below is the full breakdown of the 2020 PGA Championship, including featured groups, tee times and groupings for Rounds 1 and 2:
