Rory McIlroy is grouped along with Ludvig åberg and Akshay Bhati in the first two rounds of his latest offer to complete Grand Slam in his career at Masters.
McIlroy, who needs a victory in Augusta National, to become only a sixth player in the modern era who won all four major, received late early draw while seeking his first great success in 11 years.
World no. The 2-ven double winner on the 2025 PGA tour will be glowing with the left debut of Bhatia and teammate Ryder Cup åberg, who ended up a joint second at the Scottie Scheffler at last year’s competition, Thursday at 13.12 hours (6.12 hours UK time).
Scheffler is in the second half of the draw, as he begins his offer to become the first winner of his return from Tiger Woods, with the double champion Masters started his defense of the title with the former world no. 1 Justin Thomas and American amateur champion Jose Luis Ballester.
World no. 1 comes out in the morning wave on Thursday at 10.15am Local Time (3.15pm BST), and Collin Morikawa also came out early with Liv Golf League Joaquin Niemann and last year’s Texas Children’s Houston Open Open Woo Lee.
Xander Schauffele – looking for the third main win in four starts – he was paired with Viktor Hovland and Masters 2013 champion Adam Scott, while the ruling American open champion Bryson Dechabama was grouped with the past major winners of Hideki Matsuyama and Shane Lowry.
Other notable triball includes 2023 main winners Jon Rahm and Wyndham Clark, who come out with Tommy Fleetwood – a popular choice that will require a breakthrough victory this week, and the 2015 champion.

“I don’t think it’s a problem or a problem with Kim (McIlroy) it will be more concerned that it’s morning or afternoon,” former Captain Ryder Cup Paul McGinley said Sky Sports News. “The one who plays in the afternoon is not ideal, I’d rather see him early.
“What he has struggled with over the years is really bad- the second and second round around August. Exiting the blocks is something to do. It will be difficult to play in the afternoon, it’s not a mega thing, but it’s not ideal.
“The distraction is a big deal for Rory. It comes here for the first time with a huge amount of form. The big challenge is to try to win a major for the first time in 11 years, these are great things that are much harder for him.
“Scheffler is a guy who will win. If Rory can end up in front of him or anyone to end up in front of him, he’ll have a good chance of winning that green jacket.”
