Rory McIlroy has been grouped alongside Ryder Cup team-mate Jon Rahm and Grand Slam hopeful Jordan Spieth for the first two rounds of the PGA Championship.
McIlroy will be in the early-late half of the draw at Aronimink Golf Club as he chases back-to-back major wins, a month on from successfully defending his title at The Masters.
The world No 2 will go out at 8.40am local time on Thursday (1.40pm UK time) alongside three-time major winner Spieth, who is looking to join McIlroy in golf's Grand Slam club by lifting the Wanamaker Trophy this week.

Two-time major champion Rahm completes the marquee threeball, with the Spaniard grouped with McIlroy for the first time since agreeing a deal to reinstate his DP World Tour membership and remain eligible for future Ryder Cups.
Defending champion Scottie Scheffler is on the opposite side of the draw as he looks to claim a fifth major in as many years, having claimed the PGA Championship and The Open during a dominant 2025.
Scheffler goes out alongside Justin Rose, who also challenged McIlroy for victory at Augusta National last month, with Matt Fitzpatrick - a three-time winner on the PGA Tour already this season - also in that group.
Two-time PGA Championship winner Justin Thomas partners last year's Ryder Cup captain Keegan Bradley and world No 3 Cameron Young, who won The Players in March and is the highest-ranked player in the world rankings without a major title.
Former major champions Xander Schauffele and Brooks Koepka are in the morning wave alongside England's Tyrrell Hatton, one of 11 LIV Golf players in the field, with that threeball going out the group before McIlroy at 8.29am local time (1.29pm UK time).
The PGA Championship has been won by an American in each of the last 10 years, with golfers from the United States winning 17 of the last 24 men's major championships.
