Rory McIlroy will start his British Open bid playing alongside European Ryder Cup team-mates Jon Rahm and Justin Rose in the first two rounds at Hoylake.
The trio will begin their opening round at 2.59pm on Thursday as world number two McIlroy looks to claim his fifth Major title at the course where he won the Open in 2014.
Rahm, the world number three, is aiming to become the first Spaniard to lift the Claret Jug since Seve Ballesteros in 1988.
Laytown & Bettystown amateur Alex Maguire will be the first Irish golfer in action at Royal Liverpool, when he tees off alongside former Masters champion Charl Schwartzel from South Africa and Japan’s Rikuya Hoshino at 7.08am.
