With the PGA Championship just a week away, the latest signature event in the PGA Tour season offers a chance for some of the world's best players to not only earn huge money, world ranking and FedEx Cup points, but also assess their games ahead of the Major.
Despite those incentives, there are a couple of notable absentees, with Scottie Scheffler skipping the event in anticipation of the birth of his first child and Ludvig Aberg withdrawing due to a knee issue.
However, the 70-player field is still packed with top talent, including World No.2 Rory McIlroy. The Ulsterman, who turned 35 last week, is in a group with three-time PGA Tour winner Tom Kim and 2022 champion Max Homa over the first two rounds, with the three heading out at 12.39pm ET (5.39pm BST) on Thursday and 11.33am ET (4.33pm BST) on Friday.
The defending champion is Wyndham Clark, who claimed his maiden PGA Tour title at last year's event with a four-shot win over Xander Schauffele. He is grouped with the man he beat and Shane Lowry, and they begin their first round at 11.22am ET (4.22pm BST) and their second round at 12.06am ET (5.06pm BST).

Another eye-catching group sees Open champion Brian Harman alongside Jason Day, who won the Wells Fargo Championship in 2018, and Patrick Cantlay. They tee it up at 11.11am ET (4.11pm BST) in the first round and 12.06am ET (5.06pm BST) in the second round.
Plenty of attention will also be on the group featuring two-time Major winner Collin Morikawa, 2012 champion Rickie Fowler and Jordan Spieth, who has three Major wins. They get their challenges underway at 11.33am ET (4.33pm BST) in the first round and 12.28pm ET (5.28pm BST) in the second round.
Below are the tee times for the first two rounds of the Wells Fargo Championship.
