Tee times have been announced for the first and second rounds of the Masters tournament

Rory McIlroy will begin his defense of his Masters title at 15:31 BST on Thursday 9 April as the 90th edition of the year's first major gets under way.

Northern Ireland's McIlroy will, as tradition dictates, play in a group with US amateur champion Mason Howell and last month's Players winner Cameron Young.

The trio are in the bottom half of the first half of the tie and will be the last group to kick off the two-legged tie at 6.44pm on Friday.

World No. 1 Scotty Scheffler began his quest for a third green jacket late in the draw. The 2022 and 2024 champion will start at 18:44 on Thursday along with Scotland's Robert McIntyre and former US Open champion Gary Woodland.

In one of several other marquee groups, England's 2022 US Open winner Matt Fitzpatrick will take on American major winners Bryson DeChambeau and Xander Schoeffel in the first round at 3:07 p.m., and Tommy Fleetwood at 2:55 p.m.

Three-time Augusta runner-up Justin Rose will start his 21st Masters at 6.20pm along with 2015 champion Jordan Spieth and five-time champion Brooks Koepka, including McIlroy last year.

Record six-time Masters winner Jack Nicklaus, 86, will be joined by 90-year-old three-time champion Gary Player and two-time winner Tom Watson, 76, who will celebrate as starters at 12.25pm.
