Tiger Woods, Sergio García and Justin Rose will form the most mouthwatering trio when The Open tees off at Royal Lytham & St Anne's on Thursday. Woods, a three-times Open champion, will begin at 9.42am.

It is the fourth time at the Open that Woods and Rose have been paired together in the first two rounds. The duo were also partners at Muirfield in 2002, Carnoustie in 2007 and St Andrews two years ago.

Lee Westwood, making his 58th attempt to lift a major title, is alongside Masters champion Bubba Watson and Japan's comparatively little-known Yoshinori Fujimoto.

The defending champion, Darren Clarke, begins his defence at 9.09am alongside Ernie Els and Zach Johnson.

that means tiger got early/ late AGAIN    But so did Lee Westwood.  Rory and Luke got Late/Early.  :(

 

anyway  we will still get to see the coverage because ESPN is starting at 4:00 am edt and Tiger tees off just 20 minutes prior to the start time

friday tee time will be 14.43 pm (local time)

We will  need LOTS of coffee Thursday morning!

 

 

 

                                  It will be Breakfast with Tiger on Thursday!!!!  

or two or three.  Starting at 4:30 am.  LOL  But I will be up and watching sooner than that with the European radio from the Europeantour.com.   That way can gauge the course before Tiger starts.  It is suppose to rain in the am but be ok in the pm.  Hope Tiger doesn't get the bad side of the draw. :(

how do you get the radio on European Tour.com?

A nice hardy breakfast for Thursday!!!!
