The Open Championship 2019 tee times: Thursday July 18, Round 1

A look at Thursday’s Round 1 tee times for the 2019 edition of The Open Championship from Royal Portrush.

The Open Championship returns to Northern Ireland for the first time since 1951 as golf’s oldest major championship ventures outside of its usual rotation as 156 of the top players in the world prepare to battle Royal Portrush Golf Club, a course where betting favorite Rory McIlroy once shot a course-record 61…at the age of 16.

McIlroy begins his quest for a second victory at The Open Championship on Thursday when he tees it up alongside U.S. Open champ Gary Woodland and Paul Casey. There’s a five-hour time difference from Northern Ireland to the East Coast here in the U.S. so if you’re looking to follow Rory’s round, set an alarm clock as the trio gets their round underway at 5:09 a.m.

World number one Brooks Koepka, looking to add an Open Championship win to his already-impressive major resumé, gets his tournament underway about three hours later and will be joined by 2010 champ Louis Oosthuizen and Shubhankar Sharma. Two hours after that, Tiger Woods looks for a fourth win at The Open by starting his week off playing with former Masters champ Patrick Reed and Matt Wallace.

There are a number of fantastic threesomes set for Royal Portrush the first two days and you can find the tee times for every group for Round 1 of the 2019 edition of The Open Championship below.
